ASUS Power Saving Solution
ASUS Power Saving solution intelligently and automatically provides balanced
computing power and energy consumption.
HE 95
With the whole new high power efciency design – HE 95, this motherboard
is able to achieve 95%+ power efciency 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.
3rd Generation 8-Phase Power Design
Longer Life & Higher Efciency!
With power efciency so important to operating temperatures, ASUS’ 3rd
generation 8-phase VRm design leads the industry with its 95% power
efciency. 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 efciency.
ASUS EPU
The ASUS EPU utilizes innovative technology to digitally monitor and
tune the CPU power supply with improved VR responses in heavy or light
loadings. It automatically provides power for higher performance or improve
efciency by 7% when the PC is running low intensity applications. Working
together with AI Gear 3
+
, this can help you attain the best possible power
efciency and energy savings up to 58.6% to help save the environment. See
page 5-19 for details.
AI Nap
With AI Nap, the system can continue running at minimum power and noise
when you are temporarily away. To wake the system and return to the OS
environment, simply click the mouse or press a key. See page 5-21 for
details.
