BIOS

The BIOS of Gigabyte P35-DQ6 is based on the Award BIOS Phoenix version.

Memory configuration settings are gathered in the overclocking section and become visible only upon pressing the "Ctrl+F1" key combination in the BIOS main menu.

There is also the parameter in charge of setting memory operating frequency.

For memory modules running at frequencies over 1000 MHz, Gigabyte recommends to use one of the "DLL Settings" modes thus increasing stability and performance of the memory subsystem.

Now move on to the section to do with the system monitoring.

The board displays the current temperature values of the CPU and the system, as well as the rotational speed of the four fans. Besides, the CPU cooler is able adjusting the rotational speed depending on the CPU temperature.

Besides, you can trace the system monitoring readings from within Windows as well. For that, the new Gigabyte EasyTune Center utility is used.

This program includes all Gigabyte's developments at motherboards and is some sort of a system control center. In particular, one of the sections includes the @BIOS utility which is meant to update the BIOS.

One more - for information only: :

By the way, the board has no customary BIOS chips (in cradles). According to the documentation, these chips do the BIOS functions (the one to the right is main, with the left-hand one being backup).
