Software & Lights
As far as motherboard companion software Gigabyte makes downloading apps very easy with their APP Center. Through it you can download all of the drivers, software, and misc apps for your motherboard. This saves you so much time!
Gigabyte’s main motherboard companion software is EasyTune. Here you can full tune your system within Windows. On the main screen you can set your operating mode.
The next tab is Advanced CPU OC. Here you have sliders for all different types of settings that have to do with tuning your CPU.
Advanced DDR OC only gives you options to set your memory frequency and enable an XMP profile. There aren’t currently options for sub-timings or anything like that.
Advanced power has to do with power settings. You have load line calibrations, phase control, and more.
For RGB control on the board you have Gigabyte’s RGB Fusion software. You have the ability to control all of the lights on the board at once (make them all the same color / effect) or you can set them all individually. This software also gives you control over the RGB headers on the board.
As far as lighting on the board Gigabyte has toned things down a little. There is only RGB lighting on the rear I/O cover and the audio cover.
