This chipset manage bus speeds and access to system memory resources, such as DRAM. It also coordinates communications with the PCI bus. The default settings that came with your system have been optimized and therefore should not be changed unless you are suspicious that the settings have been changed incorrectly. 4.1 DRAM TIMING SELECTABLE When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency depends on the DRAM timing. The Choices: By SPD (default), Manual. 4.2 CAS LATENCY TIME When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency depends on the DRAM timing. The Choices: 1.5, 2(default), 2.5, and 3. 4.3 DRAM RAS# TO CAS# DELAY This field let you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Fast gives faster performance; and slow gives more stable performance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. The Choices: 4 (default), 3, and 2. 14

4. ADVANCED CHIPSET FEATURES
This submenu allows you to configure the specific features of the chipset
installed on your system. This chipset manage bus speeds and access to
system memory resources, such as DRAM.
It also coordinates
communications with the PCI bus. The default settings that came with your
system have been optimized and therefore should not be changed unless you
are suspicious that the settings have been changed incorrectly.
4.1
DRAM T
IMING
S
ELECTABLE
When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS
latency depends on the DRAM timing.
The Choices: By SPD
(default), Manual.
4.2
CAS L
ATENCY
T
IME
When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS
latency depends on the DRAM timing.
The Choices:
1.5,
2
(default), 2.5, and 3.
4.3
DRAM RAS#
TO
CAS# D
ELAY
This field let you insert a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe
signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Fast gives
faster performance; and slow gives more stable performance. This field
applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system.
The Choices: 4
(default), 3, and 2.
