3 the time the memory controller srart sending commands to memory bank. The lower the value, the sonner the memory controller can send commands out to the activated memory bank. Options are Auto, 1T and 2T. mode. ► Memory Timing by SPD This item is used to enable/disable provision of DRAM timing by SPD device. The Serial Presence Detect (SPD) device is a small EEPROM chip, mounted on a memory module. It contains important information about the module's speed, size, addressing mode and various other parameters, so that the motherboard memory controller (chipset) can better access the memory device. ► Memory Hole This item is used to determine whether the 15M-16M address field of memory is reserved for the ISA expansion card. ► Initate Graphic Adapter This item is used to choose the initate graphics controller which will be used as the primary boot device. ► IGD Graphics Mode Select This item is used to select the amount of system memory used by internal graphics device. ► DVMT Mode Select Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) dynamically allocates system memory for use as video memory to ensure the most efficient use of available resources for maximum 2D/3D graphics performance. The amount of video memory allocated depends upon the amount requested by the operating system. When the memory is no longer required, it is returned to the operating system for use by other applications or system functions. DVMT allocates memory based on system needs. This BIOS option allows you to adjust the amount of memory available for DVMT. Fixed is a memory allocation method addition to the Unified Memory Architecture (UMA) concept, wherein a static amount of page-locked graphics memory is allocated during driver initialization. This fixed amount of memory will provide the user with a guaranteed graphics memory at all times, and will no longer be available to the OS. DVMT is an enhancement of the UMA concept, where in the graphics driver allocates memory as needed for running graphics applications. If a user is not performing any graphics-intensive operations, most of the DVMT memory can be utilized by the OS for other uses. We recommend using DVMT setting for better overall system performance. ► PEG Port This item is used to enable/disable PCI Express graphics port. 34
