The table below shows the jumper
settings for the different CPU
speed configurations.
NOTE: * when it selected, the system performance will not be guaranteed.
CPU to Bus Frequency Ratio: FREQ1, FREQ2, FREQ3
These three jumpers are used in combination to decide the ratio of the internal
frequency of the CPU to the bus clock.
