Users looking to customize their memory settings deeper can do so under the advanced memory settings which allow primary, secondary, and tertiary memory latency values to be changed. This includes the Tweaker section which allows users to overclock the CPU and memory, and customize a variety of power-related setting such as Precision Boost Overdrive, LLC configuration, and voltage settings. Within the Advanced mode which can be accessed by pressing the F2 key opens all of the more functional settings. Other options available with Smart Fan 5 includes giving the users the ability to set CPU Fan fail warnings so that if a CPU fan fails during operation, an alert is given to the user to warn them as it could potentially cause damage to the system. The option is also available to set fan profiles based on a curve with speed set to a relative temperature. This allows users to control and set fan speed parameters based on different presets including normal, full-load, and less aggressive profiles. Pressing F6 from the Easy Mode allows users to access the Smart Fan 5 utility. Each menu is represented with a corresponding key eg, F2 for advanced mode, F8 for Q-Flash etc. Along the right-hand side, users can navigate through a menu of clickable options including the advanced mode, the Smart Fan 5 utility, reset the firmware settings back to default settings, and access the Q-Flash firmware update tool. To the right of this are details of the current CPU frequency, current CPU temperature, with both CPU and memory voltages also displayed. Basic information on the current fan and pump header speeds are shown in the central section at the bottom part of the screen, while along the top is a basic set of information on the model, firmware version, and the processor installed. These include being able to enable or disable memory X.M.P profiles at the click of a button, change the boot sequence, and enable AMD RAIDXpert 2, or disable of course. Looking at the initial splash screen upon first entering the firmware, the Easy Mode is designed to give users an easy to use and navigate the area in which they can customize basic, yet primary settings.
The advanced mode can be accessed by pressing the F2 key, with other functions such as the Smart Fan 5 utility accessible by pressing F6, and Q-Flash for updating the board's firmware with a press of the F8 key. It has a simple design which consists of a primarily black background, white text, and orange accents at the top and bottom. The GIGABYTE Aorus firmware has two different modes for users to sink their teeth into. The clean looking Easy Mode sets the stage, while for more experienced users, an advanced mode which allows users to tweak CPU, memory, storage, networking and PCIe related settings.
