craigathus Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 On the CD that came with my "GIGABYTE" Motherboard there is a software utility called "EasyTune5", I haven't installed it yet. I'd like to find out if it's worth installing & using? If it is worth having, should I just download it from Gigabyte's web site EasyTune5 for a more up-to date version? http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds http://www.piriform.com/docs http://www.postimage.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTskifreak Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I have a feeling it might have something to do with overclocking your processor and RAM through your motherboard. See what it is before you do anything with it. AJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart Fan is what I'm interested in, for adjusting fan speed settings regarding temperature, and keeping a check on temperatures. It's summer here in Australia, and the room that my PC is in gets very warm in the afternoons. http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/builds http://www.piriform.com/docs http://www.postimage.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly OT but you can also use Speedfan for that same purpose (without any risky overclocking settings to mess up): http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if I should install "EasyTune5" from my CD, or get a more recent version from Gigabyte's web site? On Gigabyte's web site, there is a version "EasyTune5 Pro" Easy Tune5 Pro (Please remove your current EasyTune5 Pro or earlier, and GWUM Tools before install this.)

Moderators DennisD Posted January 14, 2008 Moderators Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hi craig, I'm with JD and speed fan, but you go for it mate, as long as you don't fry your computer. I wouldn't know where to start with some of those features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
