Notably, it delivers performance boosts without requiring users to purchase new memory kits, CPUs, or other upgrades—unlocking hidden system potential through software-level refinement.
In benchmark testing using AIDA64, Ultra Turbo Mode demonstrated up to a 68% memory performance boost, and in Hitman 3: Dartmoor, gaming performance increased by up to 35%, showcasing impressive gains across various high-performance memory configurations and workloads.
Three Levels of Performance Customization
Ultra Turbo Mode offers three BIOS-level preset profiles tailored to different user needs:
LV1 Intel 200S Boost: Leverages Intel’s newest 200S Boost features for a stable yet notable uplift in system performance.
LV2 Turbo Mode: Utilizes GIGABYTE’s custom CPU/DRAM overclocking profiles for enhanced gaming optimization and increased frame rates.
LV3 Extreme Mode: Unlocks maximum performance for enthusiasts and power users ready to push their system to the limits.
This tiered approach ensures that users—whether casual gamers or hardcore overclockers—can easily tune their systems for optimal results, regardless of their technical background.
BIOS Update Now Available
Ultra Turbo Mode is now officially available as a free BIOS update for all GIGABYTE Intel Z890 series motherboards. Users can visit the official GIGABYTE support page to download the latest BIOS version and instantly benefit from the performance enhancements.
