What is Smart 6A Smarter way for PC system ManagementGIGABYTE Smart 6 is designed with user-friendliness in mind, and offers a combination of 6 innovative software utilities that provide easier and smarter PC system management. Smart 6 allows you to speed up system performance, reduce boot-up time, manage a secure platform and recover previous system settings easily with a click of the mouse button.

Smart QuickBootNo more waiting for PC Boot up

SMART QuickBoot speeds up the system boot-up process and shortens the waiting time for entering the operating system, delivering greater efficiency for daily use. BIOS QuickBoot : Shorten boot up POST time !!! OS QuickBoot : Shorten entering OS wait time!!!This utility will do Suspend & Hibernate at the same time when the system powers down, so the system will resume from suspend (S3) at next power on! Data is still protected by hibernation (S4) even if power is lost at shutdown

Smart QuickBoostOne-click Overclocking One-

Smart RecoveryReverse time for youSMART Recovery allows users to easily roll-back system settings to a previous known working status. Users can simple select the day, week or month without prior setup of a backup time flag. Theory of Smart Recovery : This utility takes a Snapshot of your hard drive everyday and records any added/deleted/modified files. Currently, Smart Recovery allows up to 60 snap shots in your hard drive (based on the reserved size of your hard drive).

By selecting the desired files according to the back up date, you can use Copy function to restore.

Smart DualBIOSSmart personal reminder

Password : you can store 12 set of passwords, such as your Yahoo mail, Google mail, or on-line bank account details.

Date : Input 12 sets of your special dates and set an auto reminder for 1 day, 3 day or 1 week before.

All the data is stored in Dual BIOS, protected against HDD crash or OS re-installation

Smart RecorderYour PCs Watch Dog PC

On/Off Recorder records when the system is powered on or off, so unauthorized use of your PC can be detected.

File monitor records when and which folder that data has been copied from local hard drive to external storage such as USB thumb drive or e-SATA HD.

All the data is stored in Dual BIOS, protected against HDD crash or OS re-installation

Smart TimeLockTime Controller for PCSMART TimeLock allows parents to schedule time limits for their children PC usage. Allowed Time :Parents can set up how much time PC can be used per day!

Non-Use Time :Parents can set Go to bed time frame for this PC. PC will be forced to shutdown from 10 PM till next day 7AM for example!

All the data is stored in Dual BIOS, protected against HDD crash or OS re-installation

Both can be setup based on weekday and weekend usage
