6.2.  Easy OC (Over Clocking) Setting 

One of the most distinguished features of this mini PC system is the Over 
Clocking function. ABIT is now bringing you a non-overclocker proof 
technology with only 1-2-3 steps. This Easy OC setting increases the CPU 
Front Side Bus speed from 3% to 15% in the beginning of powering on your 
system. No need to enter the complicated setup menu of BIOS utility, all you 
have to do is to: 

Step 1:

 Dial the Knob Controller. 

Step 2:

 Make your selection. 

Step 3:

 Press the Knob Controller to apply with your selection. 

There are six options from [

OC 0

] through [

OC 5

] when powering on the 

system. A successful over clocking setting within these options from [

OC 1

through [

OC 5

] will keep the system maintained until a next modification. A 

fail setting will reset the system to the non-overclocking [

OC 0

] status. 

Note: 

Due to the restriction of CPU specification and many unpredicted 

system hardware environmental factor, there is no guaranty to make a 
successful over clocking setting.

 

OC 0:

 

Dial the Knob Controller clockwise. The LCD 
screen displays the OC number 0. 

OC 1:

 

Dial the Knob Controller one clockwise click in the 
[OC 0] status; the LCD screen displays the OC step 
1. This [OC 1] setting increases the CPU speed 3% 
up. One counter clockwise click will dial back 
one-step to [OC0].
