1. CPU Core Speed Derivation Procedure
The DIP Switch SW1 (1,2,3 and 4) is used to set the Core/Bus (Fraction) ratio of the CPU. The actual core speed of the CPU is the Host Clock Frequency multiplied by the Core/Bus ratio.
The SW1 is a DIP switch located next to the IDE and DIMM sockets.

NOTE: a. The CPU Bus Frequency is set at 66MHz or 100MHz by CPU default.
b. If the mainboard support CPU Plug & Play, disregard this table and go directly to BIOS Special Features Setup to set the CPU speed.
2. The PCI Bus Clock is fixed at 33MHz
3. To adjust the speed of the CPU, yo must know the specification of your CPU (always ask the vendor for CPU specification)
