From recollection, which may not be completely accurate, the Asrock
motherboard that I have now is the first motherboard I've had where the
bios has not offered a setting to set the system clock to GMT/Local, and
I have always set the system clock to local because Windows, which I
tri-boot with, used to have issues with the system clock being GMT.
Having said this, on this motherboard there isn't any option to change
it, the front screen is showing local time and that time is correct for
daylight savings time, even though the machine wasn't switched on when
daylight savings time kicked in.
If you think about it, there's no reason for the mobo to know what
timezone it's in. All it has to do is keep track of the time, and let
the OS worry about timezones, DST and other time/date related stuff.
