That was interesting. Much more thorough than another video I watched on UEFI. I wish you could see the screenshots better. It's about time for an advance like this in the BIOS to use a mouse. They seem to have taken automated overclocking further too. I imagine some people like it and some will not. Do any Gigabytes have this yet?

I don't t think Gigabyte has it yet from what I can find...

Which do you guys prefer?

Do you think traditional BIOS will go away?

I would think time will tell as to the popularity and success of UEFI now that it's out there. Seems like a step in the right direction. I like the drag-and-drop for changing the boot order. If you're asking about the overclocking aspects I don't know much about it but it should at least be more convenient, seeing how most tweaking is done in the BIOS from what I know.

Personally I'm stepping back from SB until it's out awhile. I just built a new 1156 machine last May; a few months earlier after release there were lots of issues with bad sockets and other bugs that eventually got worked out as they were in use through manufacturing changes and BIOS updates.

sweet, i thought i was the only person that uses the mb box as a temp test platform before loading it up into the case.
