ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3
ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 is an auto-recovery tool that allows you to
restore a corrupted BIOS file using the bundled support DVD or USB
flash disk that contains the latest BIOS file.
ASUS Q-FAN
ASUS Q-FAN technology intelligently and automatically adjusts CPU/
Chassis fan speed according to system load and temperature, enabling
users to work in distraction-free environment with minimal noise.
ASUS EZ Flash 2
ASUS EZ Flash 2 is a utility that allows you to update the BIOS without
using an OS-based utility.
ASUS EPU
The ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit) provides total system power
management by detecting current PC loading and intelligently moderating
power in real-time. It automatically provides the most appropriate power
usage to save power and money!
ASUS 3rd Generation 8-Phase Power Design
The ASUS 3rd Generation 8-Phase Power Design provides highly
efficient operation to generate less heat (at least 18°C (32.4°F)) than
other conventional power solutions. It reduces input ripple current and
output ripple voltage, which keeps CPU and power module from suffering
the risk of high power stress. It has the advantages of quick transient
response and stability, especially beneficial when CPU requires more
current immediately under heavy loading or overclocking mode.
DO NOT uninstall the heat-pipe by yourself. Doing so may bend the tubing and affect
the heat dissipation performance.
Heat-pipe
The Heat Pipe design effectively directs the heat generated by the
chipsets to the heatsink near the back IO ports, where it can be carried
away by existing airflow from CPU fan or bundled optional fan. The
purpose of the innovative heat pipe design on this motherboard is that
the groundbreaking fanless design does not have lifetime problems as
a chipset fan does. Furthermore, it provides options for users to install
side-flow fan or passive cooler. The Heat Pipe design is the most reliable
fanless thermal solution to date.
