System Profiler does not always accurately describe the hardware. The dip switches set the MHz and bus speed ratio of the cpu and it sounds about right from your info... To find out your options, you need a chart from the manufacturer or others (I can't help on this card). If it is working fine, no need to do anything. Usually they say to press the cuda when changing things like cpu or ram... to clear any previous settings that might interfere...
