ASUS p3c2000 Manuel D’Utilisation

4. BIOS SETUP

This field is for unlocked processors only. If your processor’s Frequency
Multiple is detected locked, you will not be able to access this field. This
field sets the frequency multiple between the CPU’s internal frequency and
external frequency. This must be set in conjunction with CPU External
(FSB) Frequency to match the speed of your CPU. Configuration options:
[2.0x] [2.5x] [3.0x]...[7.0x] [7.5x] [8.0x]

This feature tells the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU and
chipset. The external frequency (bus frequency) multiplied by the bus mul-
tiple equals the CPU’s internal frequency (the CPU speed). Configuration
options: [100] [103] [105]...[174] [177] [180]

Menu

When the motherboard is set to JumperFree™
mode, this field allows you to select the internal
frequency of your CPU. Available options in-
clude multiples of 100 and 133. Select [Manual]

2 fields. Note that selecting a frequency higher
than the CPU manufacturer recommends may
cause the system to hang or crash. See System
