4.3.3 Advanced Chipset Setup Defaults
This Setup is very important to keep system’s stability. If you are not technical person, do
not attempt to change any parameters. The best way is to choose optimal default setting.
4.3.3.1 CPU Ratio Selection
This option provides different CPU clock Ratios from 3.0x to 8.0x. When you change the
ratio, the overall CPU speed will change accordingly. In the default setting of “Safe Mode”,
the CPU operates its own original clock rate automatically.
Note:
It is strongly recommended to set the default setting of “ Safe Mode”. Selecting the
higher CPU clock rate may get higher CPU speed, but it will cause the system
unstable, the damages of the system, and even burning the CPU!
4.3.3.2 ICH Delayed Transaction
ICH2 equips an embedded 32-bit post write buffer to support system delay transaction
cycles. This option provides the compliance with PCI specification version 2.1 devices.
