Designed to detect CPU loading during software program's executing, and automatically adjust CPU computing power to maximize system performance according to different needs. During loading high CPU resources consumption tasks, such as video and audio encoding programs or thrilling 3D games, the CPU requires more CPU computing power; when C.I.A. 2 is enabled, it will detect the current CPU loading and automatically accelerate the CPU computing performance, thus allow programs to execute faster and smoother. On the other hand, when the programs are terminated, the CPU will return back to its initial status.Memory Intelligent Booster 2 (M.I.B. 2)GIGABYTE M.I.B. 2 (Memory Intelligent Booster 2) technology is especially designed to maximize memory performance and boost memory bandwidth up to 10% with a recommended memory module list. The innovative GIGABYTE M.I.B. 2 technology shortens memory latency time and enhances system performance without sacrificing stability.EasyTune™ 5Newly designed user interface, the EasyTune™ 5 is more powerful yet easier to use than before. With several new add on functions such as C.I.A. & M.I.B. control center, SmartFan control center; EasyTune™ 5 not only provides powerful tools to enhance system performance, but also providing tools with easier manageability.Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker (M.I.T.)Integrates all platform performance settings into a single mode, allowing users to instantly access and change the required BIOS feature settings.

System Overclock Saver (S.O.S.)Eliminates system boot-up errors by resetting an over-enhanced system back to the original factory defaults.
