Upon first entry to the UEFI, ASUS displays the EZ Mode “splashscreen” that has all the key options like XMP, boot priority and fan tuning. Pressing F7 takes the user into the “Advanced Mode” where the full range of UEFI/BIOS options are made available
AI Tweaker is the primary area for tweaking DRAM and CPU-related voltage and frequency settings.
ASUS does provide an automated system for overclocking, the EZ Tuning Wizard. This uses very generalised overclocking profiles for Skylake CPUs so the best results, in terms of minimal power consumption and heat for maximum frequency, will come from manual overclocking.
The advanced section contains a wealth of adjustments related to all other system controllers and onboard hardware. Tweaking options are plentiful including the ability to enable or disable depop for the SupremeFX audio as well as lighting controls.
The “SupremeFX LED Lighting” refers to the red LED strip along the separated audio PCB. You can disable this completely or set it to one of three operation modes. There's also the option to turn the RGB lighting on or off, though customisation such as colour and lighting patterns have to be edited from within the AURA RGB software.
