Installing the Mainboard
P-Rating
The P-Rating was defined by some manufacturers other than Intel to
rate the performance of their CPU in comparison with Intel Pentium
CPUs. For instance, Cyrix 6x86 P166+ has a higher actual speed
compared with Intel Pentium P166, its internal clock needs only
133MHz versus 166MHz for Intel' s product. The main reason is that
Cyrix has improved the internal architecture of the 6x86 CPU, which
means that with the same internal clock speed, the actual clock speed
will be different.
Having read the related terminology above, please refer to the information
in appendices B, C or D for the type and specifications of your own CPU.
We suggest that you note down these specifications, which will help you
when you install the CPU.
CPU Settings:
To configure the speed and the voltage of the CPU, you must enter to the
CPU SOFT MENU in BIOS Setup.
