If you want to play with the advanced settings on the Asus motherboard, of which there are plenty, you'll have to enter the Advanced screen, as shown below. In the JumprFree Configuration menu, you can change the CPU, Memory and PCI-E frequencies, select between overclocking profiles, change the voltage for the CPU, Memory etc.

Once again, the Asus P5LD2 Deluxe has an almost identical BIOS with the P5WD2 Premium. In order to highlight the differences, we used screenshots from the P5WD2 Premium review (black and white) and full colour for the P5LD2.

Advanced Main Screen

JumperFree Configuration

Different FSB and CPU Lock Free function is visible, due to the different CPU used. Otherwise the BIOS is identical for both Asus motherboards.

Overclock Profiles

Memory Frequency

The available preset values for the memory frequencies are different due to the different FSB of the two Intel processors we used.

Chipset Setup

From the OnBoard Devices Configuration menu, you can enable or disable the LAN, Firewire, SATA etc.

OnBoard Devices Configuration

An actual difference can be found here. The P5LD2 Deluxe has only one LAN port while the P5WD2 Premium two, so the second LAN is missing in the BIOS.

USB Configuration

Detailed information about the BIOS configuration can be found in the board's manual. We highly recommend you first read it before proceeding with any overclocking.
