Asus F1A75-I Deluxe FM1 Motherboard Review

As this board includes the wonderful and well implemented UEFI GUI BIOS from Asus, overclocking is a simple process that requires little effort. After little effort, you can enjoy the extra performance squeezed out of your system and that’s exactly what we did.
After some initial tweaking, we decided to leave EVERYTHING on auto apart from the APU frequency and APU voltage and that’s when we started to crank it up. Just by touching these two settings and nothing else, we wereable to boot into Windows 100% stable at 3.7GHz.
For some strange reason, the CPU-Z validation messes up and ends up throwing some strange numbers around as seen here but we were able to use a APU frequency of 130 and a APU multiplier of 29 to gain 3.77GHz using 1.525V.
We are confident that this board could be pushed further if we started to tweak more settings and cranking up our watercooling system, but we’re sure that most consumers would be happy with this type of overclock, especially from a Mini-ITX board.
