SpeedEasy II -- has just recommended is the upgraded edition of SpeedEasy In addition to some functions of SpeedEasy, including the wire jumper-free function, the users can also realize in the BIOS setup the CPU core voltage adjustability, AGP display voltage adjustability and DDR memory module voltage adjustability. This doubtless renders a quicker and easier mode for overclocking and will further help the users to tap the maximum potentiality of the system. SPEEDEASY II again proves QDI's capability in handling BIOS and hardware.

SPEEDEASY II provides a user-friendly interface. In a case where you want to further challenge the overclocking limit, you can adjust the CPU core voltage. BIOS provides more than ten voltage steps with the lowest reaching 0.025 V. The users can adjust the voltage high or low as needed. Of course, you had better not change the CPU core voltage freely. Instead you should be careful and stop where it should stop. The CPU core voltage adjustment alone sometimes cannot guarantee the overclocking to be successful. The reliability of AGP and memory will also affect the result of overclocking to a large degree. Therefore, SPEEDEASY II has been designed with a new feature. That is, you can increase the working voltage of the AGP graphics display card or system memory DDR module by 10% and improve the overall potential of the system as a result. It is a matter of course that if the user does not adjust the voltage thereof, BIOS will automatically choose the normal value. You do not need to open the casing when overclocking. As wire jumper setting complex, you can easily strike a few keys to make choice by SPEEDEASY II. It is indeed easy.

In addition, QDI also provides a good Doctor to the users HARDWARE DOCTOR (5 Diagnostic LEDs). The mainboard-carried five LEDs monitor the status of the devices, including CPU, chipset, memory, PCI devices, Clock Generator and AGP card, which make it easy for you to maintain your system. When you have trouble in overclocking, the Doctor” will tell you where the problems exactly are by illuminating different Diagnostic LEDs, which saves the trouble of checking item by item. It is very clear and quick and easy. The combination of other EASY technologies of QDI (e.g. STEPEASY II, etc.) and the triple protection technology for CPU guarantee the CPU safety. EASY technologies will give you one helping hand in overcoming the trouble of overclocking and make the PC operation full of fun.

SpeedEasy II Quick Setup

Procedures:
1. Correctly insert the CPU;
2. Plug in other configurations and restore the system;
3. Swith on power to the system and press the <Del> key to enter BIOS Setup;
4. Enter "CPU SpeedEasy II Setup" menu to setup the CPU speed;
5. Adjust AGP, DDR, CPU voltage;
6. Save and exit BIOS Setup, your system will now boot sucessfully.

CPU SpeedEasy II Setup Menu

Select <CPU SpeedEasyII Setup> item from the main menu and enter the sub-menu;

BIOS provides you with a set of basic values for your processor selection instead of the jumper settings. The processor speed can be manually selected on the "CPU SpeedEasyII Setup" menu screen.

Questions & Answers

1. If the CPU setting is wrongly set, will it cause any damage to the CPU ?

No, because the BIOS can auto detect the CPU type and assign the correct CPU voltage to the CPU including single voltage or dual voltage CPU. You only need to set the CPU speed in the BIOS. For that case, even you select a higher speed for the CPU, it won't cause any damage to the CPU.

2. How to recover the system if a higher CPU speed is set and the system .cannot boot up again ?

You can press the hot key <Del> while power on the system. This let the system to run at safe and low speed to boot up. Then you can enter the BIOS setup menu and re-select the CPU speed.
