GIGABYTE EZ SetupGIGABYTE 7 Series motherboards feature an exclusive EZ Setup utility that allows users to more easily implement the latest Intel technologies that can help speed up your PC. Within the EZ Setup utility users will find three EZ setup applications that will offer greatly simplified install procedures for these key Intel technologies: Intel Smart Response

Intel Rapid Start Intel Smart Connect

EZ Setup - 2

EZ Smart ResponseTraditionally enabling Intel Smart Response meant an install and setup procedure that would involve several steps and could be quite time consuming and even daunting for less experienced users. EZ Smart Response allows users to setup and configure Intel Smart Response technology in one just one step.

ON/OFF Charge USB Port* ON/OFF Charge USB Port may vary by model.

Quick Charge for iPhone / iPad / iPod touch

*Due to certain mobile phone limitations, users may need to connect the mobile phone to their PC before the PC enters S4/S5 mode to enable a quick charge from non ON/OFF Charge USB ports. Charging results may vary by model.

GIGABYTE Helps You Quick Charge Your iPhone / iPad / iPod TouchGIGABYTE On/Off Charge technology allows you to charge your iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch regardless of whether your PC is on, in standby mode or even off. A derivative of GIGABYTE's highly acclaimed 3x USB Power feature, On/Off Charge enables devices to draw more current from GIGABYTE motherboard USB ports than standard USB ports allow, so that charging from your PC can be as fast as with a charger.

3x USB Power BoostGIGABYTE motherboards feature a 3x USB power boost, delivering greater compatibility and extra power for USB devices. GIGABYTEs unique USB power design is also able to efficiently regulate output over the full voltage range, which greatly enhances USB device compatibility. In addition, dedicated lower resistance fuses ensure lower voltage drops, and provide more stable and plentiful power delivery.

3x USB power is a maximum theoretical value. Actual performance may vary by system configuration.
