[UnLink]

Allows user to configure the DRAM timing manually for respective

memory channel.

Advanced DRAM Configuration

Press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu. This sub-menu will be activated after setting

[Link] or [Unlink] in “DRAM Timing Mode”. User can set the memory timing for each

memory channel. The system may become unstable or unbootable after changing

memory timing. If it occurs, please clear the CMOS data and restore the default

settings. (Refer to the Clear CMOS jumper/ button section to clear the CMOS data,

and enter the BIOS to load the default settings.)

Spread Spectrum

This function reduces the EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) generated by

modulating clock generator pulses.
[Enabled]

Enables the spread spectrum function to reduce the EMI

(Electromagnetic Interference) problem.

[Disabled]

Enhances the overclocking ability of CPU Base clock.

Important

If you do not have any EMI problem, leave the setting at [Disabled] for optimal

system stability and performance. But if you are plagued by EMI, select the value

of Spread Spectrum for EMI reduction.
The greater the Spread Spectrum value is, the greater the EMI is reduced, and

the system will become less stable. For the most suitable Spread Spectrum value,

please consult your local EMI regulation.
Remember to disable Spread Spectrum if you are overclocking because even a

slight jitter can introduce a temporary boost in clock speed which may just cause

your overclocked processor to lock up.

DRAM Voltage [Auto]

Sets the value for appointed voltage related to memory. If set to "Auto", BIOS will set

the voltage automatically or you can set it manually.

CPU Memory Changed Detect [Enabled]

Enables or disables the system to issue a warning message during boot when the

CPU or memory has been replaced.
[Enabled]

The system will issue a warning message during boot and than

needs to load the default settings for new devices.

[Disabled]

Disables this function and keeps the current BIOS settings.

OC Retry Count

When overclocking has failed, setting this item as [1,3] will allow system to reboot

1/ 3 times with the same overclocked configuration. If overclocking has failed every

time, the system will restore the defaults.

Overclocking Profiles

Overclocking Profiles management. Press <Enter> to enter the sub-menu.
