KT7 Settings, what do they mean??

[Wildfire]

What settings do people use on their KT 7s I have been reccomended the following:

CPU operating speed - User Defined
Multiplier - 12.5x
FSB - 107
CPU Power supply - User define
Core voltage - 1.85v
I/O voltage - 3.50v

Fast CPU Command Decode - Normal
CPU drive strength - 3
Enhance chip performance - Enabled
Force 4-way interleave - Enabled
Enable DRAM 4K-page mode - Enabled
DRAM clock - HCLK+PCICLK / for 133 Memory, set to Host only if Pc100

Bank 0/1 DRAM Timing - Turbo
Bank 2/3 DRAM Timing - Turbo
Bank 4/5 DRAM Timing - Turbo
DRAM Bank interleave - 4 Way
Delay DRAM Read latch - AUTO
MD Driving strength - HI
SDRAM Cycle length - 2 /3
P2C/C2P Concurrency - Disabled

AGP Aperture size - 128 / Half your system memory
AGP 4x Mode - Enabled/Disable this option if you get system freezes
AGP Driving Control - Auto/Manual*
AGP Driving Value - *
Fast Writes Support - Disabled

this gets my previous 1.2 to 1.4 but trying some of these options results in crashes system freezes and really high pitch whines through the speakers.

Can anybody enlighten me as to what some of these mean and what they do. Also a good set up for my KT 7.

Present setup is:

TBird 850 @ 1050 (10.5 x 100)
Taisol with Delta 60 mm
KT 7
640Mb PQI PC133 RAM
GeForce 2 MX DH PRO
Soundblaster live
x2 80 mm YS Tech fans


Thanks

The HCLK+PCICLK is only used for 133 mhz memory if used on a 100 mhz FSB as it multiplys the FSB with the PCI speed ( 100 x 33 = 133 ) to use all the available ram bandwith. If the memory is 133 mhz and being used on a 133 mhz FSB then you use Host same as you would for PC100 running on 100 mhz FSB.

While the settings you show are reasonable, you must be aware that not all hardware or CPU's are created equal and as such you may have to fiddle to find the best for you and your system.

bra, if ya wanna tweak the BIOS, for TOP RAM speed i will include a link right HERE as for the rest of it, it talks about your processor and things....read your manual for your MOBO, it tells you what each do
