ASRock's Z87E-ITX BIOS is fairly standard compared to what I have seen from them recently. Finding what you need by navigating through its provided options is pretty easy, but a new design might have been a nice addition, although not really needed. I have not taken many screenshots because there are not a ton of pages full of options. I did find most of what I needed easily and noticed a heading that mentioned a "UEFI Guide", and clicking on this option made some tooltips that were not present on other ASRock products I tested recently pop up. I was rather impressed by how easily I got everything up and running as the only thing I had to adjust was the board's CMOS clock and date.
