BIOS
BIOS options on mATX boards are typically restricted. The presence
of an IGP and the limited cooling associated with the form factor makes manufacturers
nervous about allowing users the ability to customize frequencies and voltages.
Intel is notorious for locking down their BIOS allowing only
basic options to be changed.

True to Intel's reputation, the DG35EC's BIOS has
only slightly more freedom than a detainee at Guantanamo Bay. Only the most
basic of memory options are available.
