Asus EVOLUTION P5E64 WS - Manual (Page 21)

ASUS P5E64 WS Evolution 1-5
ASUS SASsaby cards support
This motherboard is fully compatible with ASUS SASsaby cards (optional).
Faster, safer and more stable, SAS will provide users with a better choice for
storage expansion and upgrade needs.
ASUS Quiet Thermal Solution
ASUS Quiet Thermal solution makes system more stable and enhances the
overclocking capability.
HE 95
With the whole new high power efficiency design – HE 95, this motherboard
is able to achieve 95%+ power efficiency in light loading mode and 90%+ in
full/heavy loading mode. No software or driver required, the hardware-based
HE 95 automatically saves power for users.
New Generation 8-Phase Power Design
The ASUS 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.
Fanless Design - 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.
DO NOT uninstall the heat-pipe by yourself. Doing so may bend the tubing and
affect the heat dissipation performance.
