If user runs EasyTuneIII over system' limitation, the biggest lost is only to restart the s computer again and the side effect is then well controlled. Moreover, if one well-performed system speed been tested in EasyTuneIII, user can " Save"this bus speed and " Load"it in next time. Obviously, Gigabyte EasyTuneIII has already turned the " overdrive"technology toward to a newer generation. [. . . ]
