Windows based Overclocking utility

Overclock" might be one of the most common issues
in computer field. But have many users ever tried it?
The answer is probably "no". Because "Overclock"
is thought to be very difficult and includes a lot of
technical know-how, sometimes "Overclock" is even
considered as special skills found only in some
enthusiasts. But as to the experts in "Overclock",
what's the truth? They may spend quite a lot of time
and money to study, try and use many different hard-

ware or BIOS tools to do "Overclock". And even with these technologies, they still learn that it's quite a
risk because the safety and stability of an "Overclock" system is unknown. Now everything is different
because of a Windows based overclocking utility "EasyTune 4" --announced by Gigabyte. This win-
dows based utility has totally changed the gaming rule of "Overclock". This is the first windows based
overclocking utility is suitable for both normal and power users. Users can choose either "Easy Mode"
or "Advanced Mode" for overclocking at their convenience. For users who choose "Easy Mode", they
just need to click "Auto Optimize" to have autoed and immediate CPU overclocking. This software will
then overdrive CPU speed automatically with the result being shown in the control panel. If users prefer
"Overclock" by them, there is also another choice. Click "Advanced Mode" to enjoy "sport drive" class
Overclocking user interface. "Advanced Mode", allows users to change the system bus / AGP /
Memory working frequency in small increments to get ultimate system performance. It operates in
coordination with Gigabyte motherboards. Besides, it is different from other traditional over-clocking
methods, EasyTune 4 doesn't require users to change neither BIOS nor hardware switch/ jumper setting;
on the other hand, they can do "Overclock" at easy step . Therefore, this is a safer way for "Overclock"
as nothing is changed on software or hardware. If user runs EasyTune 4 over system's limitation, the
biggest lost is only to restart the computer again and the side effect is then well controlled. Moreover, if one
well-performed system speed has been tested in EasyTune 4, user can "Save" this setting and "Load"
it in next time. Obviously, Gigabyte EasyTune 4 has already turned the "Overclock" technology toward
to a newer generation. This wonderful software is now free bundled in Gigabyte motherboard attached in
driver CD. Users may make a test drive of "EasyTune 4" to find out more amazing features by
themselves.
