SDRAM Configuration [By SPD]

This sets the optimal timings for SDRAM related fields, depending on the
memory modules that you are using. Default setting is [By SPD], which
configures the subsequent 3 items by reading the contents in the SPD (Se-
rial Presence Detect) device. The EEPROM on the memory module stores
critical parameter information about the module, such as memory type, size,
speed, voltage interface, and module banks. Configuration options: [By
SPD][User Define]

SDRAM CAS Latency

This controls the latency between the SDRAM read command and the time
that the data actually becomes available. NOTE: This field will only be
adjustable when SDRAM Configuration is set to [User Define].

SDRAM RAS Precharge Time

This controls the idle clocks after issuing a precharge command to the
SDRAM. NOTE: This field will only be adjustable when SDRAM
Configuration
is set to [User Define].

SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay

This controls the latency between the SDRAM active command and the
read/write command. NOTE: This field will only be adjustable when
SDRAM Configuration is set to [User Define].

AGP 4X Supported [Enabled]

This feature allows the CPU to write directly to the AGP card for up to 30%
performance gain over standard AGP 4X mode. Configuration options: [En-
abled] [Disabled]
