BIOSTAR TZ68K+ Ver. 6.x Pro Reviews

Biostar TZ68K+ makes a pretty good overall impression. No, it doesn’t support IEEE1394 (FireWire), eSATA and Nvidia SLI, but are there many users who really need these technologies? If you do, you can easily find a different model. And if you don't, you can save some money by choosing this simplified mainboard which also brings you the additional advantage of low power consumption and comes at a very attractive price point. We couldn’t make our memory modules work at a high frequency with it, but there are only few products that can reach 1866 MHz. As for CPU overclocking, the Biostar TZ68K+ hit the maximum frequency our CPU supported. The only disappointment is that the mainboard doesn’t set the memory timings correctly by default. Hopefully, this will be corrected in the upcoming BIOS updates. Besides, “optimal” BIOS settings of other mainboards are not really optimal but only acceptable. You have to adjust them manually if you care about your computer performance. As for Biostar's UEFI BIOS, it has been improved and already offers a sufficient selection of setup options.
