► CPU Spread Spectrum
This option is used to enable or disable clock generator spread spectrum. If you enabled this
function, it can significantly reduce the EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) generated by the
system, so to comply with FCC regulation. But if overclocking is activated, you had better dis-
able it.
► PCI Spread Spectrum
This option is used to enable or disable the PCI spread spectrum function. If you enabled this
function, it can significantly reduce the EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) generated by the
system, so to comply with FCC regulation.
► K8<->NB HT Speed
HT stands for HyperTransport bus. The CPU<->NB HT Speed option controls the physical
speed of the CPU to Northbridge HT link. The settings are [Auto], [200 MHz], [400 MHz], [800
