It is an 800MHz Athlon. I have used a temperture probe
and it was always cool. I have no idea on the dram timings.
But I didn't change anything there.

There are some of the BIOS settings:

***** SDRAM Timing *****
Configure Timing by SPD Disabled
 PH limit 32 cycles
 Idle cycle limit 8 cycles
 TRP SRAS Precharge 3 cycles
 TRAS timing 5 cycles
 CAS latency 3 cycles

 TRC bank cycle timing 8 cycles
 TRCD timing 2 cycles
  Super Bypass mode Disabled

DRAM Integrity mode Disabled
DRAM Burst Refresh Enabled
Memory hole Disabled
Graphics aperture size 64MB
MDA support No
USB function Enabled

*** Hardware monitor ***
Spread Spectrum Enabled
Stop Un-used PCI clock Enabled
CPU Frequency Selection 100 Mhz
CPU Voltage Selection 1.60V
   Chassis intrusion Disabled
   CPU temp 37 C / 98 F (approx - varries)
   System temp 31 C / 87 F (approx - varries)
   CPU fan speed 5400 RPM (approx - varries)
   Power fan speed 0 RPM
   System fan speed 0 RPM
   CPU VID 1.70V
   Vcore 1.648 V (approx - varries)
   Vsram 3.376 V (approx - varries)
    3.3V 3.312 V (approx - varries)
   + 5.000V 5.140 V (approx - varries)
   +12.000V 11.473 V (approx - varries)
   -12.000V -12.646 V (approx - varries)
   - 5.000V -5.026 V (approx - varries)
   Battery 3.069 V (approx - varries)
   +5V SB 5.082 V (approx - varries)

Well, it has pc100 dimms. It is a Microstar MS6195 motherboard.
The L1/L2 caches are 128KB/512KB, but I don't know any more
about that.
