Dual Intelligent Processors 3 with New DIGI+ Power

Control

The world’s first Dual Intelligent Processors from ASUS pioneered twin onboard chips

- TPU (TurboV Processing Unit) and EPU (Energy Processing Unit). Third generation Dual

Intelligent Processors with New DIGI+ Power Control provides a total CPU, memory and

SMART DIGI+ Key profile tuning digital power solution, which includes two digital voltage

controllers allowing ultra-precise DRAM tuning in addition to ultra-precise CPU voltage

control - a first on the AMD platform. It’s upgraded with one-click extreme performance

optimization with the user-friendly AI Suite II utility. This evolution of innovative and industry-

leading ASUS technology provides super-accurate voltage tuning for better efficiency, stability

and performance.

New DIGI+ Power Control
All-New Digital Power Control for both CPU and DRAM
The New DIGI+ Power Control design with two digital voltage controllers upgrades

motherboard power delivery to an overall solution on AMD AM3+ motherboards, including

all-new DRAM controllers that offers ultra-precise memory tuning in addition to ultra-precise

CPU voltage control. This evolution of innovative, industry-leading ASUS technology provides

the best in class control for better efficiency, stability and performance.

TPU with the All-New SMART DIGI+ Key for a Blazing Performance Boost
Always at the forefront of power design, ASUS propels you into the future standard of

power management again by giving you a complete CPU, memory and new SMART DIGI+

Technology with profile tuning digital power solution, which works with the TPU to ramp up

performance to its maximum. Enable the all-new SMART DIGI+ Key profile with a single click

and adjust CPU ratios manually in the TPU to increase CPU frequency up to an incredible

100%!

Increased CPU and DRAM overclocking range
With programmable digital controllers onboard, users can adjust CPU and DRAM voltage

and VRM switching frequencies for various overclocking scenarios. New DRAM tuning

possibilities make the most of DDR3 memory for better performance with CPU/NB load line

calibration and 30% more DRAM current capacity. Thanks to a slew of power options teamed

with an extensive and intuitive UEFI BIOS, overclocking very large memory setups is no more

difficult than mainstream motherboards.

TPU

TPU (TurboV Processing Unit) offers precise voltage control and advanced monitoring

mechanisms through the Auto Tuning and TurboV functions.

EPU

EPU (Energy Processing Unit), the world’s first real-time system power-saving chip,

automatically detects the current system load and intelligently moderates power usage.

It offers a total system-wide energy optimization, reduces fan noise, and extends the

component’s lifespan.
