CPU Level Up
Enjoy up to 40% more performance! Overclock immediately with OC profile
presets. Much more than simple frequency settings, this profile gives gamers
comprehensive and detailed tuning to frequencies, voltagies, and even timings to
create a real professional level of overclocking configuration. See pages 4-17 and
5-33 for details.
2-Phase DDR3
With the embedded 2-Phase DDR3, this motherboard allows users to reach higher
memory frequencies and enjoy better performance. Compared with only one phase
solutions, this motherboard ensures longer power component lifespans and higher
overclockability due to cooler temperatures and better efficiency.
3rd Generation 8 Phase Power Design
Longer Life & Higher Efficiency!
With power efficiency so important to operating temperatures, ASUS' 3rd
generation 8-phase VRM design leads the industry with its 95% power efficiency.
High quality power components such as low RDS (on) MOSFETs for minimum
switching loss & lower temperatures, 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
efficiency.
Loadline Calibration
The Loadline calibration ensures stable and optimal CPU voltage when heavy
loading.
Extreme Tweaker
This feature allows you to fine tune the CPU/memory voltage and gradually
increase the memory Front Side Bus (FSB) and PCI Express frequency at 1MHz
increment to achieve maximum system performance.
AI Booster
The ASUS AI Booster allows you to overclock the CPU speed in Windows
environment without the hassle of booting the BIOS.
