BIOS:

Both Gigabyte motherboards use an Award BIOS and offer a similar set of features. Gigabyte has its MIT, or Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker, menu for offering all of the overclocking settings. There is the CPU frequency control, DRAM tweaking options, voltage adjustments, and other extras such as Gigabyte's CIA2 or CPU Intelligent Accelerator 2. The settings and ranges for the voltage/frequency controls should be enough to satisfy even the diehard enthusiasts. One important note is that the BIOS/motherboard had incorrectly identified the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 processor as having a clock ratio of 8x instead of 9x, which requires adjusting.
