Advanced Chipset Features

Note: Change these settings only if you are familiar with the chipset.
SDRAM CAS Latency Time
The field controls the timing delay before SDRAM starts a read command
after receiving it. Settings: Auto, 2 and 3. 2 increases system performance
while 3 provides more stable system performance.
SDRAM Cycle Time Tras/Trc
This item allows you to control the number of SDRAM clocks used for SDRAM
parameters Tras and Trc. Tras specifies the minimum clocks required between
active command and prechange command. Trc specifies the minimum clocks
required between active command and re-active command. Settings: 5/7 and
6/8.
SDRAM RAS-to-CAS Delay
When DRAM is refreshed, both rows and columns are addressed
separately. This setup item allows you to determine the timing of the
transition from RAS (row address strobe) to CAS (column address strobe).
The less the clock cycles, the faster the DRAM performance. Settings: 3
and 2.
