1-4 Chapter 1: Product Introduction
ASUS EPU
System Level Energy Saving
The new ASUS EPU—the world’s first 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.
ASUS Quiet Thermal Solution
ASUS Quiet Thermal solution makes system more stable and enhances the
overclocking capability.
ASUS Fanless Design—Heat-pipe solution
The Heat Pipe design effectively directs the heat generated by the vCore
area to the heatsink near the back IO ports, where it can be carried away by
existing airflow from CPU 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. The Heat Pipe design is the most
reliable fanless thermal solution to date.
DO NOT uninstall the heat-pipe by yourself. Doing so may bend the tubing and
affect the heat dissipation performance.
Stack Cool 2
ASUS Stack Cool 2 is a fan�less and zero�noise cooling solution that lowers
the temperature of critical heat generating components. The motherboard
uses a special design on the printed circuit board (PCB) to dissipate heat that
critical components generate.
Fan Xpert
Active Quiet & Cool
ASUS Fan Xpert intelligently allows users to adjust both the CPU and chassis
fan speed according to different ambient temperature, which is caused
by different climate conditions in different geographic regions and system
loading. Built�in variety of useful profiles offer flexible controls of fan speed to
achieve a quiet and cool environment.
ASUS Crystal Sound
This feature can enhance speech-centric applications like Skype, online game,
video conference and recording.
