Intel® Smart Response Technology Intel® Smart Response Technology, an important part of Green ASUS eco-friendly computing, reduces load and wait time, eliminates unecessary hard drive spin thus lowering power usage, and uses an installed SSD (requires 18.6 GB available space) as a cache for frequently accessed data or applications. It combines SSD performance and hard drive capacity, operating up to six times faster than a hard-drive-only system to boost the system's overall performance. * 4th Generation Intel® Core™ processors family support Intel® Smart Response Technology. ** An operating system must be installed on the HDD to launch Intel® Smart Response Technology. *** The SSD is reserved for caching function. Intel® Smart Connect Technology Your computer can receive fresh updates for selected applications, even when the system is in sleep mode. This means less time waiting for applications to update and sync with the cloud, leading to a more efficient computing experience. Intel® Rapid Start Technology Intel® Rapid Start Technology allows your system to receive updates for your web applications in real-time even when your system is in sleep mode, saving wait time and power usage. Complete USB 3.0 integration This motherboard offers you the strategic USB 3.0 accessibility for both the front and rear panels, allowing you to experience the convenience of the latest plug and play connectivity solution of speed up to ten times faster than USB 2.0. 1.1.2 "Ultimate COOL" Thermal Solutions Thermal Radar 2 Thermal Radar 2 offers multiple sensors for intelligent thermal control. It allows you to adjust fan speeds for optimized cooling, and provides CPU and GPU benchmarks for system health monitoring. It also features a dedicated digital voltage regulators for manual and automatic tune up of CPU, iGPU, and memory voltage settings. 1.1.3 "TUF Engine" Power Design Digital Power Control ASUS DIGI+ Power Control features the revolutionary and innovative digital VRM, DRAM, and CPU Voltage controllers. These controllers offers ultra-precise memory and voltage tuning for optimal system efficiency, stability and performance. TUF Components (Choke, Cap. & MOSFET; certified by military-standard) This motherboard provides rugged performance even in the most challenging conditions with its robust TUF chokes, solid capacitors, and MOSFETs, which are certified through a third-party, military-grade testing. TUF Chokes or Alloy Choke is made up of a compound of various metals instead of the standard iron, which supports up to 40A rated current, 25% higher than the standard chokes. The TUF Chokes are packaged in a single piece, eliminating the emission of vibration noise, delivering superb characteristics, and durability under extreme conditions.
