CPU Speed Setup
The system bus frequency can be switched at 66MHz, 100MHz, 133MHz(For Intel
810E)(Optional)andAuto byadjustingJP11/JP32(SeeFigure-1). The CPU Frequency is control
by BIOS.
M The CPU speed must match with the frequency RATIO. It will cause system hanging up
if the frequency RATIO is higher than that of CPU.

« Note : Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor’s
specifications. We don’t recommend you to set the system bus frequency over
the CPU’s specification because these specific bus frequencies are not the
standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the peripherals. Whether
your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend
on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets, SDRAM,
Cards….etc.
« Note : JP32 is only available when the motherboard use 82810E chipset.
« Note : 133MHz only 82810E support.
