Aggressive BIOS settings
In the BIOS settings of my A7N8X-X amongst the Advanced Chipset Features
I can change the System Performance setting from Optimal to Aggressive. Having done that I can see a noticable performance increase but am worried about the the info bit that says it's using overclocked settings. I want to maximise the performance of the hardware I have obviously, but it's not crucial and I don't want to do anything to risk damaging my system. So - is it ok to use aggressive settings or should I just stick to Optimal? TIA. |

TIA. it depend on your hardware my memory support in agressive mode a different setting with higher performance but it not like having twice the performance. i my ppoint of view it will not damage anything... see the manual for further info my memory support the 166fsb and the 133fsb but for that it change the cas latency from 2.5 to 2 for a 133fsb memory ship ( pc2700) i suggest to set it at default before doing anything... |
