BIOS and Overclocking
Remember in school when all you have to use was MS Paint and you always chose contrasting colours to define everything? That’s what this reminds me of. The click BIOS works well with a simple performance optimiser and boot priority list.
Entering the Advanced BIOS and it feels much more traditional; a well thought out and easy to navigate page system works well.
You will likely spend most of your time in this section, tweaking your overclocks to reap as much performance as possible out of your components.
Overclocking
Overclocking is generally an easy process, especially on an Intel based system with a simple multiplier increase; it was a similar story here and our CPU was able to hit 4.8 GHz with no issues.
