AGP Aperture Size Choices: 32; 64 MB. Memory mapped and graphics
data structures can reside in a Graphics Aperture.
This area is like a linear buffer. BIOS will automatically
report the starting address of this buffer to the O.S.
Delay Prior to Thermal The chipset has an embedded 32-bit posted write
buffer to support delay transactions cycles.
This item allows you to choose a delay timing
before a new Thermal reading is taken.
Memory Hole At 15M-
16M
You can reserve this area of system memory for ISA
adapter ROM. When this area is reserved, it cannot
be cached.
Video BIOS Cacheable
Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system
BIOS ROM at C0000h to C7FFFh, resulting in video
performance. However, if any program writes to this
memory area, a system error may result.
System BIOS
Cacheable
Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system
BIOS ROM at F0000h to FFFFFh, resulting in
better system performance.

Thermal management function. default: Ddisabled.
Video RAM Cacheable Selecting Enabled allows caching of the video memory
(RAM) at A0000h-AFFFFh, resulting in better video
performance. However, check your AGP manual to
find out if any compatibility problem exists.
Memory Frequency

The value represents the performance parameters
of the installed memory chips (DRAM). Do not
change the value from the factory setting unless you
install new memory that has a different performance
rating.
