    Optimal Bios Settings?

    I swear I read on here a day or so ago someone posting a list of some of the Bios settings on the NF7-S and what they should be set to for optimal performance, but what annoys me is I can't find it

    I'm referring to the settings in the menu with the options such as "AGP Aperture size" or whatver, cos I can't for the life of me remember what most of the options were...

    Catch my drift? Lol

    AGP Aperture size is meant to be half of your total RAM, but i think you only need put it to 64mb.

    Also, as you saw in the other post.....set the Row Active Delay to 11. (i need to write that down loads to remember it) then set the rest to as low as you can go.

    I cant think of any other things to tweak to get the best performance at the moment.

    Anyone else help me with the other settings?

    I definitely saw somewhere optimal settings for the "PNP/PCI Configurations" and "Advanced Chipset Features" pages (I think that's what they're called!)

    I've been bitten by the "tweaking for optimal performance" bug again!

    I've not seen that guide myself sorry

    But you might find some useful information in my guide..
    It's based on the 8RDA+ Motherboard, it's getting out of date but the BIOS settings should still be useful to you
