What does mean SDRAM Bank Interleave which option make the PC faster (2-way
or 4-way).
also what it is the V-link 8x supported??
Where can i find a good manual (explenations) for motherboard bios settings?
Thanks
Grigoris
P.S. my motherboard is an ASUS P4V800-X
The rojakpot site offers some explanations of BIOS settings.

There is an explanation for "Force 4 way interleave" here:

The V-link and hardware like it, are high bandwidth interfaces between
the Northbridge and Southbridge. At one time, chipsets were joined by
using the PCI bus, and this meant that commands sent to the Southbridge
shared the same bandwidth as all the PCI cards. This could result in
bandwidth starvation, and problems with sound cards. Newer
Northbridge/Southbridge chipsets solved this problem by using separate
proprietary bidirectional links between the chips, generally with
bandwidths much greater than 2x the basic PCI bandwidth.
