8+2 Phase Power Design
To fully unleash the next-generation AM3 CPU’s potential, the ASUS M4 Series
motherboards have adopted a brand new 8-phase VRM power design. It delivers high

lifespan. This series also features an extra 2 (or 1) phase power dedicated to integrated
memory/HT controller.
ASUS Anti-Surge Protection
This special design prevents expensive devices and the motherboard from damage
caused by power surges from switching power supply (PSU).
ASUS Green Design
This motherboard and its packaging comply with the European Union’s Restriction on the
use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) to safeguard consumers’ health while minimizing the
impact of the environment.
ASUS EPU
The ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit) provides total system power management by
detecting current PC loadings and intelligently moderating power usage for critical PC
components in real-time–helping save power and money!

are temporarily away. To wake the system and return to the OS environment, simply
click the mouse or press a key.
