what is cpu host/src/atic in the bios?

hi guys

i was given a acer t671 and when looking in the bios i came across a option marked "cpu host/src/atic" in frequency/voltage control , and when you press enter is shows default which speaks for itself... and then they go up in the following values

100/100/100mhz

133/100/100mhz

200/100/100mhz

266/100/100mhz

i have a idea the cpu host is the cpu clock frequency... however those values also look like ram speeds...... however the second and third values stay the same all the way through

any help will be much appreciated

thanks guys

Update:

thanks to darren

however the cpu in question is a pentium D 915 with a stock speed of 2.8ghz... so what would increasing it to 133/100/100 do ?

    It's all do do with your CPU frequencies, there are many internal components and bus speeds within a modern CPU

    100(Ref clock)/100(imc clock)/100(qmi clock)
