Configure SDRAM Timing by SPD
Selects whether DRAM timing is controlled by the SPD (Serial Presence
Detect) EPROM on the DRAM module. Setting to Enabled enables DRAM
Frequency and SDRAM CAS Latency automatically to be determined by
BIOS based on the configurations on the SPD. Selecting Disabled allows
users to configure these fields manually. The default value is Enabled.
SDRAM CAS Latency
This controls the timing delay (in clock cycles) before SDRAM starts a read
command after receiving it. Settings are 2 and 3. 2 increases the system
performance while 3 provides more stable performance. The default value is
3.
DRAM Frequency
Use this item to configure the clock frequency of the installed DRAMs.
