what's new? there was a Ratio tab for all 4 cores in the Tuner tab ...


Gigabyte has published an updated version of the EasyTune6 utility designed to facilitate overclocking on its motherboards.

Those who wish are given the opportunity to play with the multiplier, system bus, AGP, PCI and DRAM frequencies and voltages. It is possible to roll back to the original settings. In addition to the described capabilities, the program has a function for monitoring the PC hardware, which provides standard information about temperatures, voltages and fan speeds. Naturally, the set includes the function of setting threshold values ​​and notifying the user if they are violated.

You can pick up EasyTune6 v.B10.0521.1 from there (http://download.gigabyte.asia/FileList/Utility/motherboard_utility_gbttools_gbt_et6.exe) (21.6 MB, Freeware, Windows All).

I will immediately inform you about the bug: the "Easy Boost" button in the "Tuner - Easy" tab practically does not work for anyone among the owners of AMD processors ... either the malicious intent of Gigabyte programmers, or everything is in favor of Intel (We draw your attention to the fact that that Easy Tune 6 is fully supported only on m / n with Intel chipsets of the 4th series Intel P45 / P43 / G45 / G43 - http://www.gigabyte.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=26134)


Next in order:

0. Any buttons on top, in the form of a Sheet of paper (Quick info), a dog (Updating the program - which never plows for some reason), a question mark (Help) and the Letter "I" (shows the "About the program" window with choice of languages), which are not needed in fact ... including the very first

1. Tab "GPU" - shows comprehensive data about your processor.


2. Tab "Memory" - accordingly shows information about your installed RAM on the PC.


3. Tab "Tuner" - as you understand, the most necessary tab of tools .. but there is one "BUT": changing to high values ​​"on the fly" is fraught with freezing of your OS (completely, and if you're lucky - catch BSoD).


* 3.1. Tuner - Advanced - Frequency - change the frequencies of the processor, FSB bus, number of processor multipliers, memory, PCI-E and PCI buses.


* 3.2. Tuner - Advanced - Voltage - changing the processor voltage ...! BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL. a 0.1V change in real time can cause the system to freeze or damage your processor if you move the voltage scale an order of magnitude ...


* 3.3. Tuner - Advanced - Core Boost - in fact, the BIOS changes the firmware by controlling the power schemes and performance algorithms of your x-core processor. ! Quite a dumb idea ... on AMD x4 945 I did not notice any changes ... however, in the tools for monitoring the CPU temperature, these indicators disappeared into nothing, which could not be removed.


4. Graphics is part of overclocking your GPU ... to be honest, you can only


control the "Health - Fan" cooling fan speed parameter for your video card ... and then it's better to trust either CCC, AoD or MSI A. 5. Smart - controls the speed of your cooling fan for the CPU, which must have the PWM function ... and you can also change the critical parameters of the heating temperature, in the ranges of which the efficiency of blowing your CPU will change.


6. HW Monitor - well, everything is simple. I will not even say what is what, because you yourself know and guess .. At least you can set a certain critical range, after which you will be informed either by a text message or an audio message ..



REMEMBER: only you are responsible for the breakdown or malfunction of your PC, and not the Gigabyte programmers who wrote EasyTune6.
So be extremely careful and attentive before changing any parameter. Either google about the mysteries of overclocking, or sit back and do nothing with this tool.
