Abstract
A computer device, a setting method for a memory module, and a mainboard are provided. The computer device includes a memory module, a processor, and the mainboard. A basic input output system (BIOS) of the mainboard stores an extreme memory profile (XMP). When the processor performs the BIOS so that the computer device displays a user interface (UI), the BIOS displays an overclocking option corresponding to the XMP in a selection list of the UI. When the BIOS receives a selection request corresponding to the overclocking option of the selection list, the BIOS reads multiple memory setting parameters corresponding to the XMP, and configures the memory module according to the memory setting parameters.
Claims17
A computer device, comprising:
- a memory module having a serial presence detect (SPD) module;
- a processor coupled to the memory module;
- and
- a basic input output system (BIOS) coupled to the processor and storing a first extreme memory profile (XMP), wherein
- when the processor performs the BIOS so that the computer device displays a user interface (UI), the BIOS displays a first overclocking option corresponding to the first XMP in a selection list of the UI, wherein
- when the BIOS receives a selection request corresponding to the first overclocking option of the selection list, the BIOS reads a plurality of first memory setting parameters corresponding to the first XMP, and configures the memory module according to the plurality of first memory setting parameters,
- wherein the first overclocking option displayed in the selection list comprises displaying a part of the plurality of first memory setting parameters, and the part of the plurality of first memory setting parameters comprises a memory particle type, a memory operating frequency, a column address strobe or signal (CAS) latency, a synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) row address strobe or signal (RAS) to CAS delay time, an SDRAM row precharge delay time, an SDRAM active to precharge delay time, and a memory operating voltage.
A setting method for a memory module, comprising:
- performing, by a processor, a basic input output system (BIOS) to display a user interface (UI) through a computer device, wherein the BIOS stores a first extreme memory profile (XMP);
- displaying, by the BIOS, a first overclocking option corresponding to the first XMP in a selection list of the UI;
- reading, by the BIOS, a plurality of first memory setting parameters corresponding to the first XMP when the BIOS receives a selection request corresponding to the first overclocking option of the selection list;
- and
- configuring, by the BIOS, the memory module according to the plurality of first memory setting parameters,
- wherein the first overclocking option displayed in the selection list comprises displaying a part of the plurality of first memory setting parameters, and the part of the plurality of first memory setting parameters comprises a memory particle type, a memory operating frequency, a column address strobe or signal (CAS) latency, a synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) row address strobe or signal (RAS) to CAS delay time, an SDRAM row precharge delay time, an SDRAM active to precharge delay time, and a memory operating voltage.
A mainboard disposed in a computer device, comprising:
- a basic input output system (BIOS) storing a first extreme memory profile (XMP) and coupled to a memory module and a processor disposed on the mainboard, wherein
- when the processor performs the BIOS so that the computer device displays a user interface (UI), the BIOS displays a first overclocking option corresponding to the first XMP in a selection list of the UI, wherein
- when the BIOS receives a selection request corresponding to the first overclocking option of the selection list, the BIOS reads a plurality of first memory setting parameters corresponding to the first XMP, and configures the memory module according to the plurality of first memory setting parameters,
- wherein the first overclocking option displayed in the selection list comprises displaying a part of the plurality of first memory setting parameters, and the part of the plurality of first memory setting parameters comprises a memory particle type, a memory operating frequency, a column address strobe or signal (CAS) latency, a synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) row address strobe or signal (RAS) to CAS delay time, an SDRAM row precharge delay time, an SDRAM active to precharge delay time, and a memory operating voltage.
