ASUS 8-Phase Power Design
Longer life & higher efciency!
With power efciency so important to operating temperature, ASUS’ 8-phase
VRM design leads the industry with its 96% power efciency. High quality power
components such as low RDS (on) MOSFETs for minimum switching loss & lower
temperature, Ferrite core chokes with lower hysteresis loss, and high quality
Japanese-made conductive polymer capacitors all add up to ensure longer
component life and lower power loss—creating more energy efciency.
ASUS Power Saving Solution
ASUS Power Saving solution intelligently and automatically provides balanced
computing power and energy consumption.
ASUS EPU-6 Engine
The new ASUS EPU—the world’s rst power saving engine, has been
upgraded to a new 6 engine version, which provides total system power
savings by detecting current PC loadings and intelligently moderating power
in real-time. With auto phase switching for components (which includes the
CPU, VGA card, memory, chipset, hard drives and CPU cooler / system
fans), the EPU automatically provides the most appropriate power usage via
intelligent acceleration and overclocking - helping save power and money.
