Board Software

Biostar's driver disk is exactly what it needs to be: simple and functional. Biostar has included some bloatware, but none of it is set to automatically install with the essential drivers. The auto install is actually pretty conservative in general, which I like. I do think the "manual" and "about" tabs could be consolidated, but I don't think it's worth the effort to correct.


Biostar has included their standard suite of utilities with the Biostar Racing X470GTN. "eHot-Line" is a dedicated tech support chat app, and "BIOSreen" is a simple tool for changing the post image. I consider both to be very optional, though the first may be critically helpful if you run into issues.


The real utility—pun 100% intended—is the Racing GT EVO app. Biostar consolidated all the tools for the Biostar Racing X470GTN into this app; fan control, in OS overclocking, hardware monitoring, and more are all packed into a simple no nonsense application. This is one of my favorite utilities overall; there are some that are more fully featured, but those tend to be more complicated than they need to be.
