Included Software & Features
Gigabyte has finally decided to make their APP Center a central app where you can access all of the other Gigabyte Apps in one place. It actually looks pretty good. Unfortunately Gigabyte still makes you download each app individually. I wish they would just package everything together so I just had to download a single file.

@BIOS allows you to easily update your BIOS from within Windows. You can update from both the internet and a file.
EasyTune is of course our favorite piece of software from Gigabyte. It allows us to easy tune our system from within Windows.
Finally we have V-Tuner which will allow you to overclock and tune your graphics card within Windows.
