BIOS Setup
3.1.3 Advanced Chipset Features
This section gives you functions to configure the system based
on the specific features of the chipset. The chipset manages bus
speeds and access to system memory resources.
These items
should not be altered unless necessary.
The default settings have
been chosen because they provide the best operating conditions
for your system. The only time you might consider making any
changes would be if you discovered some incompatibility or that
data was being lost while using your system.
3.1.3.1 DRAM Timing Selectable
This field is used to select the timing of the DRAM.
By SPD
The EEPROM on a DIMM has SPD (Serial Pres-
ence Detect) data structure that stores informa-
tion about the module such as the memory type,
memory size, memory speed, etc. When this op-
tion is selected, the system will run according to
the information in the EEPROM. This option is
the default setting because it provides the most
stable condition for the system. The “CAS Latency
Time” to “DRAM RAS# Precharge” fields will
show the default settings by SPD.
The settings on the screen are for reference only. Your version may not be identical
to this one.
