Over Clocking Your Computer With Gigabyte Software

If you have a gigabyte motherboard from the GA p31 chipset range, one tool you must have is thier Easytune 5 pro application. Yes it is quite old now but thats primarily why it's so good because. It isn't to big on the safety front- obvioulsy theres a disclaimer saying if you ruin your processor and board, dont blame Gigabyte, which is fair enough to be honest. But you wont ever have to worry about that anyway.

The performance gains are significant, and if you have a gigabyte board, Easytune 5 Pro is a free piece of software and it allows people who are serios about over clocking their computers to get even more out of it, im just using the simple easy mode and you don't have to worry about damaging your processor. All you need to do is keep ramping it up till it hangs. this WON'T ruin your processor, Gigabyte Technology have a whole write up in their board manuals, All there recent or decent boards have lots of fail-safe features, which prevent damages happening due to "careless" overclocking. And once you find the point where it hangs you don't need to go above that anyway. Quite simply because you can no use a frozen computer.

The other tool I'd recommend is for Gainward Graphics Cards, again the older the overclocking software the better.

Expertool works with all Gainward Graphics cards, alot of other graphics cards have a lot of Overclocking potential, but if you buy a "golden Sample" version, only a little bit more expensive than normal. the card has been designed with overclocking in mind, with a huge cooler plate, you can see it in the photos- this is a huge graphics card.

The only things you ever really need to keep in mind when it comes to over-clocking your computer is have you got a decent power supply? anything over 600w or "heavy duty is good, and have you got sufficent cooling? again, plenty of fans and an airy space around your computer tower is good.

The great thing is with modern technology and everyone trying to get a little bit more out of their boards for the money, manufacturers have taken this into account, hence all the overclocking facilities and safety features built into the boards, so you never have to worry.Gigabyte actively encourage overclocking which is reassuring and asus are getting there too.

Gigabyte's Upcoming New Technologies

During the Computex 2010, Gigabyte showcased some new motherboard technology for the general users as well as for the enthusiasts. If you are one who has interest in latest products and want to use it in first hand, get some computer help to learn more about those products in details before you buy one. You can also get in touch with a help desk specialist in case you need additional support.

Gigabyte Technology started off their seminar known as Gigabyte Technology Seminar with their best selling motherboard from their current lineup, aimed at budget conscious users. This motherboard GA-EP41T-USB3 is the flagship model based on Intel G41 chipset and is also supporting USB3 interface.

Next in the lineup were the P55 and the H55 motherboards in the enthusiasts' realm, which showcased the overclocking power of the new Intel Core i5-655K and Core i7-875K processors.
After this, it was the time for Gigabyte to showcase their brand new CPU power design, demonstrated using the high-end X58A-UD9 motherboard, which has a 24-phase PWM design. According to Gigabyte, they have developed a PWM design that not only supply an inordinate amount of power to even the most insanely overclocked processor, but is also robust. The most important features of this new design's maximum power delivery capabilities are the Dual Power Switching and Power Phase Boost features. When enabled, Dual Power Switching splits the 24 phases into two separate sets of 12 phases. In doing so, during light/normal load conditions, in order to even out the wear & tear, one set of 12 phases gets active while the other set remains powered down and vice versa. A bonus feature of this design is Auto Failure Protection, which will automatically disable the group of 12 power phases if any one phase in that set is faulty. This allows the motherboard to continue operating using the remaining twelve phases. Full load scenarios are where Power Phase Boost comes into play. When the CPU requires more than 12 phases DPS gets temporarily disabled and the 12 other phases are automatically activated. When the system returns to a normal load state, Dual Power Switching is re-enabled and the motherboard drops back down to 12 phases to ensure better power efficiency and phase reliability.

The next thing that Gigabyte showed off was the HotKey OC feature. It helps the user to overclock the CPU using just a single key stroke. Next came, CloudOC. Despite the name, CloudOC doesn't actually make use of a Cloud computing framework, but it is internet based. In brief, CloudOC is remote monitoring and overclocking tool that utilizes an HTML-based interface. In short, you can monitor and overclock your Gigabyte motherboard from anywhere in the world, as long as you have an internet connection.
Gigabyte also unveiled the 3X USB Power Boost feature that allowed all their Intel X58/P55/H55/H57 and AMD 800 series motherboards to supply up to 1.5 amps through USB 2.0 ports. Not only is this enough power to charge the iPad, but it also means you can "quick charge", i.e. recharge all types of devices much faster than the traditional motherboard. It is obviously also beneficial for powering external devices of any kind. Another benefit of On/Off Charge is that it allows users to charge their iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch even when the system is powered off.

Apart from these Gigabyte also showcased their convertible tablet-netbook - the T1000P. The T1000P features a swiveling 10.1" LED backlit panel that supports multi-touch and features handwriting input recognition. It also has a pleasingly high 1366x768 resolution. It also features the new Intel 'Pine Trail' platform, which means that it comes with the latest generation of Atom N400 series processors and Intel GMA 3150 IGP, which are extremely energy efficient. Connectivity-wise, all bases are covered with Wi-Fi B/G/N, Bluetooth V2.1, and optional 3.5G mobile broadband. Along with this model, Gigabyte also showed their new convertible tablet the new M1125N.
