BCLK Frequency
The CPU speed is determined by the CPU Ratio multiplied with the BCLK.
Increasing the BCLK will increase the internal CPU clock speed but also affect the
clock speed of other components.
DRAM Reference Clock
Select Auto for optimized settings.
DRAM Frequency
If [Auto] is selected, the motherboard will detect the memory module(s) inserted
and assign the appropriate frequency automatically.
Primary Timing
CAS# Latency (tCL)
The time between sending a column address to the memory and the beginning of the data
in response.
RAS# to CAS# Delay and Row Precharge (tRCDtRP)
RAS# to CAS# Delay : The number of clock cycles required between the opening of
a row of memory and accessing columns within it.
Row Precharge: The number of clock cycles required between the issuing of the
precharge command and opening the next row.
RAS# Active Time (tRAS)
The number of clock cycles required between a bank active command and issuing the
precharge command.
Command Rate (CR)
The delay between when a memory chip is selected and when the first active command can
be issued.
Secondary Timing
Write Recovery Time (tWR)
The amount of delay that must elapse after the completion of a valid write operation,
before an active bank can be precharged.
Refresh Cycle Time (tRFC)
The number of clocks from a Refresh command until the first Activate command to
the same rank.
