Renaissance BIOS, Software, And Accessories
The Renaissance has wide enough frequency and voltage ranges in small enough setting increments to push most hardware combinations to the limit, though PCIe clock isn’t adjustable.
| BIOS Frequency and Voltage settings (for overclocking) | |
|---|---|
| CPU Reference Clock | 133 to 260 MHz (1 MHz) |
| Clock Multiplier Adjustment | Yes |
| DRAM Ratios | DDR3-800 to DDR3-2133 (266 MHz) |
| PCIe Clock | Not Adjustable |
| CPU Vcore | Stock -0.6 v to +1.260 v (0.010 v), |
| CPU VTT (CPU Uncore) Voltage | Stock -0.4 v to +0.5 v (0.010 v), |
| IOH (Northbridge) Core | 1.017 v to 1.936 v (0.0275 v) |
| ICH (Southbridge) Core | Not Adjustable |
| DRAM Voltage | 1.3875 v to 2.794 v (0.0375 v) |
| CASLatencyRange | tCAS:3-18; tRCD: 3-15; tRP: 3-15; tRAS: 9-30 |
The Fox Central Control Unit menu provide basic clock control along with several submenus for CPU features, memory timings and voltage levels
Manual memory tuning mode requires adjustment of every available timing, since individual settings have no auto-detect feature. Voltage control is also significantly less elaborate than the menus found in several competing products.
We didn’t find any tuning software for Windows, but Foxconn was kind enough to include Norton Internet Security on the Renaissance support DVD.
