"The GIGABYTE M57SLI-S4 is the first-ever desktop motherboard supported by a Free & Open Source BIOS, thanks to AMD engineer Yinghai Lu who released GPL-licensed code last month. This state-of-the-art motherboard is based on the NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI chipset and AMD's latest Socket AM2." I am not exactly a Free Software evangelist, but I am a strong proponent of open BIOS, for various reasons. Good thing, this.

Does the new LinuxBIOS still retain the same tweakability as the stock bios (especially after pressing Ctrl+F1 in the main Award bios screen)?
You know, voltage, clock, divisors, memory timings, fan control, etc
