2) CPU External Frequency Selection (DIP_SW Switches 1–4)
This option tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU and
SDRAM. This allows the selection of the CPU’s External frequency (or BUS
Clock). The BUS Clock multiplied by the Frequency Multiple equals the CPU’s
Internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed).
WARNING! Set the CPU frequency only to the recommended settings. Frequencies
other than the recommended CPU bus frequencies are not guaranteed to be stable.
Overclocking the processor is not recommended. It may result in a slower speed.
