Easy Tune

Kippered · 16 Nov 2012 at 16:24

Afternoon,

Other than not having full control of how you setup your overclock are there any other draw backs of using the Easy Tune software that comes with a Gigabyte Z-77 UD3H.

Plan on doing a bit more stability testing but I set it to 4.4Ghz and ran Prime 95 for 15mins and seemed ok. Hit 65°C max so tempted to try higher if its stable after a 2 hours Prime 95 run.

Cheers

Easy Tune is rubbish unstable software. Use the BIOS.

I found the Easytune6 three presets did work, but the auto tune function was poor and sometimes locked the PC up.

cool thanks. currently just used the 2nd preset. will learn a bit more and redo the oc in the bios.

thanks

I use it to control setup fan speed to heat. That's only thing I will use it for.

Originally had it installed to control the CPU fan, but then uninstalled it as my fans are pretty quiet anyway. Only software I have installed from the Gigabyte disk is the touch BIOS for the Z68 board.

Once CPU fan idle/load fan speed is set you can remove ET. It lets you setup the fans but doesn't actually control them
