Motherboard Intelligent BIOS (M.I.B.):

The Motherboard Intelligent BIOS section is where we get all the options for overclocking. The frequencies of your memory, CPU, and the voltages for them can be changed. Talk about an abundance of options here! This BIOS is loaded, especially for a mid-range board! You can alter the multiplier anywhere from 6x up to 8x, and the CPU frequency can be set from 100MHz to 1200MHz.

There are many settings you can alter for the memory, when I first saw the plethora of options, I was stunned! The vCore for the CPU has great stepping that goes all the way up to 2.3v!

Now it's time to take a look at the included programs and drivers.
