As a reviewer that posts every screenshot possible for BIOS pages, I hate ASUS's BIOS. There are no less than 82 images below. That's eighty-two pages of options for you to tweak and adjust to your liking, or to ignore and leave the board to adjust automatically. That's one of the strengths of an ASUS BIOS—it has an extensive list of settings that automatically adjust themselves based on what other BIOS options you change. As such, even novice users can make good attempts at pushing their system to the limit without having to know what each and every little setting really does. At times, this is great for the end user, but such can also be a bit of a nuisance since it allows for successful extreme overclocking attempts without an extremely high level of knowledge, or having to take classes to know what's what. So no matter what level of user you are, you can have a lot of fun by easily pushing the limits, and you can rest assured that this board is rarely going to be the item to hit the limit first.
