Asus P8Z77-V LK User Manual

1-4 Chapter 1: Product Introduction
Chapter 1
8-channel high denition audio
The onboard 8-channel HD audio (High Denition Audio, previously codenamed Azalia)
CODEC enables high-quality 192KHz/24-bit audio output and jack-detect feature that
automatically detects and identies what types of peripherals are plugged into the audio
I/O jacks and noties users of inappropriate connection, which means there will be no more
confusion of Line-in, Line-out, and Mic jacks.
100% All High-quality Conductive Polymer Capacitors
This motherboard uses all high-quality conductive polymer capacitors for durability, improved
lifespan, and enhanced thermal capacity.
ErP ready
The motherboard is European Union´s Energy-related Products (ErP) ready, and ErP
requires products to meet certain energy efciency requirements in regards to energy
consumptions. This is in line with ASUS vision of creating environment-friendly and energy-
efcient products through product design and innovation to reduce carbon footprint of the
product and thus mitigate environmental impacts.
1.3.2 ASUS DIGI+ VRM Digital Power Design
Digital Power Control: Digital Power Design for the CPU and iGPU
All-new digital CPU power controls work perfectly together to match digital power signal
(SVID) requests from the CPU, with ultra-fast sensing and response efciently delivering
precision power. Accurate delivery reduces waste, and provides more stable CPU Vcore
voltages. Users can adjust CPU and its processor graphics (iGPU) voltages for various
overclocking scenarios, with accurate input through UEFI BIOS tuning or the exclusive ASUS
interface. This proprietary design increases overlocking headroom to push performance to its
full potential.
ASUS EPU
Tap into the world’s rst real-time PC power saving chip through the AI Suite II utility. Get
total system-wide energy optimization by automatically detecting current PC loadings and
intelligently moderating power consumption. This also reduces fan noise and extends
component longevity.
1.3.3 ASUS Exclusive Features
USB 3.0 Boost
Faster USB 3.0 Transmission with UASP
New ASUS USB 3.0 Boost technology supports UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), the
latest USB 3.0 standard. With USB 3.0 Boost technology, a USB device’s transmission speed
is signicantly increased up to 170%, adding to an already impressive fast USB 3.0 transfer
speed. ASUS software automatically accelerates data speeds for compatible USB 3.0
peripherals without the need for any user interaction.
