It is pretty good but it could do with a bit more explanation on some of the settings. As for the seperate
GTL I think this is great...
In fact I used it yesterday got my QX down to 1.16 volts under load for 3.6Ghz but core 1 failed prime instantly, kept adjusting the
GTL for that particular core and got it stable again....
Whereas with
DFI for example your adjusting for two cores at the same time even though only 1 might fail, which I found to be more frustrating as each core can respond differently to the
GTL adjustment. Therefore you might get the failing core stable but the other one might now start to fail due to the adjustment. This individual approach on the Foxconn just seemed like an easier process to get stable again in my experiance having used both boards....
I haven't had any multiple core failures yet which could be more tricky but in that case just do the same until each one becomes stable as the fact that I was adjusting core 1 didn't have any affect on the other cores.....
