    EPoX EP-AT690G Pro Motherboard Review - How About the BIOS?


    (Page 5 of 7 )

    No motherboard review is complete without a peek at what the BIOS has to offer.  As you know, I'm a big fan of EPoX motherboards, since they give you excellent control (via PowerBios) over your CPU and board settings.  Using these settings, it's quite simple to configure your system for overclocking.

    Here's the main bios screen.  Nothing really special here.

    Here on the DRAM configuration page, you see the settings for the system memory.  You can change settings such as the CRS latency, Row Cycle Time, Refresh Rates, and much more.

    The PCIE configuration screen allows you to change the settings related to the graphics chipset.

    The real overclocking power comes into play on this screen, where you can adjust settings for the CPU clock.

    Choosing the voltage adjust menu allows you to increase voltage to your Vcore, DIMM, or North Bridge.
