As obvious as this should be, it probably still needs to be said in plain words. If you do not enjoy tweaking, you should not be looking at this board. If you want plug and play, instant overclock, look elsewhere. The multitude of settings here require a time investment, and no small one at that, to master and get a feel for as Lood007 said. But, if you are willing to invest that time, this board will reward you.
