My manual say the same. But with the description above it seems it only an 
internal delay. No used for external accesses. Can you send me this manual, 
please? Mine is newer and from AMD. It seems in this newer manual many 
register bits are marked "reserverd", where in the old manuals their real use 
and function was documented (maybe).
