Not sure why the BIOS and the program are showing two different things on the processor performance. You can manually set the timings for your memory through the BIOS. Contact your memory manufacturere to get the timings. In updating your bios, contact your motherboard manufacturere to get the latest revision and they should be able to get you the procedure for updating as well.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Ram or CAS timings
Not sure what either mean. I've built and overclocked my pc and have some
questions. Heres the hardware.
Mother board: Gigabyte GA965P S3
Processor : Intel core duo [log in to unmask] up to 3.2
Ram : 4X1GB sticks of Patriot ddr2 667 or 5300 (I think)
I suppose the other stuff really isn't relavent to my questions. The ram
is has it's timing to 5-5-5 15. Also I have the frequency up at 800 up from the
stock 667. Now at start up on the bios screen it says the pc is clocked at 3.2
however when I run the CPU-Z program it says my processor is running at 2.4ghz
and my multilplier is locked at 6 when in the BIOS it's set to 8.
Here's my questions:
Obviously I wonder why the programs are saying my processor is running
slower than what my bios is set at.
Also is there a way to manually set timings on ram and should I bother.
Also how do you update your bios.
Go figure I built the thing and it runs great I just like to tinker and want to
know why.
