2.5 CPU TO BUS FREQUENCY RATIO (SW1-4,5,6)
These switches set the frequency ratio between the Internal frequency of the CPU
and the External frequency (called the Bus clock) within the CPU. These must be
set together with the above jumpers CPU External (Bus) Frequency Selection.
2.6 CPU EXTERNAL (BUS) FREQUENCY SELECTION
(SW1-7,8,9,10)
These switches tell the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU. The Bus
clock times the Bus Ratio equals the CPU’s Internal frequency.
2.7 SDRAM FREQUENCY SELECTION (SW-10)
This switch set the SDRAM frequency same as CPU External frequency or AGP
frequency.
SW1-10 : ON SDRAM frequency = AGP frequency
SW1-10 : OFF SDRAM frequency = CPU External frequency

2.10 MEMORY CONFIGURATION
The mainboard lets user upgrade system memory via SIMM or DIMM sockets on the
mainboard. On board memory is located in three banks: Bank 0 – Bank 2. Two
SIMM sockets (SIMM1, SIMM2) are provided for SPM, FPM and EDO RAM
SIMM and two DIMM sockets (DIMM1, DIMM2) are available for the 3.3V
unbuffered SDRAM and EDO DIMM.
Note: The type of SIMM1/SIMM2 must be same.
Only 3.3V unbuffered DIMM can be used.
Both single sided and double sided SIMM or DIMM can be supported.
Table 4 provides the typical memory configurations supported by the mainboard.

The memory size of SIMM can be 8MB, 16MB, 32MB or 64MB. The memory of
DIMM can be 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, 64MB or 128MB.
Important: When 100MHz DRAM speed is selected. SDRAM DIMMs with
PC100 specification and Serial Presence Defect (SPD) data structure
are required.
We highly don’t recommend the mix combination of SIMMs and
DIMMs, especially when 100MHz DRAM speed is selected.

CHAPTER 3 CONNECTOR
CONFIGURATION
Once the mainboard has been fastened into system case, the next step is to connect the internal
cables and external cables. The mainboard connectors have varying numbers of pins and are the
points of contact between the mainboard and other parts of the computer.
