The following two items appear only when you set the

Ai Overclock Tuner item to

[Manual], [D.O.C.P.] or [X.M.P.].

BCLK Frequency [XXX]

Allows you to adjust the Internal Base Clock (BCLK). Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the
value. You can also type the desired value using the numeric keypad. The values range from
80 to 500.

PCIE Frequency [XXX]

Allows you to set the PCI Express frequency. Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the PCIE
frequency. The values range from 100 to 200.

DRAM Frequency [Auto]

Allows you to set the DDR3 operating frequency.
Configuration options: [Auto] [DDR3-800MHz] [DDR3-1066MHz] [DDR3-1333MHz]
[DDR3-1600*]

The

DRAM Frequency configuration options vary with the BCLK Frequency item

settings.

According to Intel CPU spec, CPUs with a core frequency of 2.66G support the
maximum DIMM frequency of up to DDR3 1333. To use DIMMs of a higher frequency
with a 2.66G CPU, enable the

DRAM O.C. Profile feature in BIOS. Refer to section
