4-4. Advanced Chipset Features Setup Menu

The Chipset Features Setup Menu is used to modify the contents of the buffers in the chipset
on the motherboard. Since the parameters of the buffers are closely related to hardware, if the
setup is not correct or is false, the motherboard will become unstable or you will not be able
to boot up. If you don't know the hardware very well, use default values (i.e. use the LOAD
SETUP DEFAULTS option). The only time you might consider making any changes is if you
discover that data is being lost while using your system.

DRAM Timing Selectable:
This item sets the optimal timings for the following four items, depending on the memory
module you are using. The default setting "By SPD" configures these four items by reading
the contents in the SPD (Serial 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.
# CAS Latency Time:
This item controls the latency between the DRAM read command and the time that the data
becomes actually available. The options are: 1.5, 2, and 2.5.
