Overclock" might be one of the most common issues in computer field. B ut have many users ever tried it? The answ er is probably " no". Because "Ov erclock" is thought to be very difficult and in- cludes a lot of technical know -how , sometimes "Ov erclock" is even considered as special skills found only in some enthusiasts. But as to the ex - perts in "Overclock", what's the truth? They may spend quite a lot of time and money to study, try and use many different hardware or BI OS 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. N ow every thing is different because of a Win- dows based overclocking utility "EasyTune 4" --announced by Gigabyte. This windows 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. U sers can choose either "Easy Mode" or "Ad- vanced 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 ov erclocking. This software will then overdrive CP U 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 oper- ates in coordination with Gigabyte motherboards. Besides, it is different from other traditional over- clocking methods, EasyTune 4 doesn't require users to change neither B IOS nor hardware sw itch/ jumper setting; on the other hand, they can do "Ov erclock" 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, Gigaby te EasyTune 4 has already turned the "O verclock" technology toward to a newer generation. This w onderful software is now free bundled in G igabyte motherboard attached in driver C D. Users may make a test drive of "Easy Tune 4" to find out more amazing features by themselves.
