CPU/DRAM CLK Synch CTL

Common Options : Synchronous, Asynchronous, Auto

Quick Review

This BIOS feature allows a clear-cut way of controlling the memory controller's operating mode.

When set to Synchronous, the memory controller will set the memory clock to the same speed as the front side bus.

When set to Asynchronous, the memory controller will allow the memory clock to run at any speed.

When set to Auto, the operating mode of memory controller will depend on the memory clock you set.

It is recommended that you select the Synchronous operating mode. This generally provides the best performance, even if your memory modules are capable of higher clock speeds.
