ASUS A7VL-VM User’s Manual
3. HARDWARE SETUP
WARNING! Frequencies other than the recommended CPU bus frequencies are
not guaranteed to be stable. Overclocking your processor is not recommended. It
may result in a slower speed and premature wearing of the processor.
2) CPU External Frequency Setting (SW1 Switches 1–4)
This option tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU, SDRAM,
and the chipset. This allows the selection of the CPU’s External frequency. The
CPU External Frequency multiplied by the Frequency Multiple equals the CPU’s
Internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed).
IMPORTANT:
1. To use this feature, JEN must be set to Jumper Mode: [1-2]; (See #1 on the
previous page).
2. Otherwise, if JumperFree Mode is enabled, SW1 Switches 1,2 and 4 must
be set to ON and SW1 Switch 3 to OFF (See #1 on the previous page) and
then use BIOS setup in place of these switches (set Operating Frequency
Setting to User Define under 4.4 Advanced Menu in BIOS Setup to set the
CPU Frequency).
