Yes, they do- it's just not called "bank speed" or anything like that.

In most AMI BIOS', the "Advanced Chipset Setup" page has entries for things
like DRAM Read Wait States, DRAM Writes WS, CAS time, RAS time, and the like.
These control the timing for memory on the motherboard.

If you don't know what you're doing (i.e., don't know exactly what each of 
those terms mean), then use the factory settings (newer BIOS' have an "Auto-
Configure" option.
