4.3.3 DIGI+ Power Control DIGI+ Power Control allows you to adjust VRM voltage and frequency modulation to enhance reliability and stability. It also provides the highest power efficiency, generating less heat to longer component lifespan and minimize power loss. After installing AI Suite II from the motherboard support DVD, launch DIGI+ Power Control by clicking Tool > DIGI+ Power Control on the AI Suite II main menu bar. Select CPU Power or DRAM Power to adjust the power control settings.

Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal. CPU Current Capability CPU Current Capability provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher value setting gets higher VRM power consumption delivery. CPU Voltage Frequency Switching frequency will affect the VRM transient response and component thermal. Higher frequency gets quicker transient response. VCCSA Load-line Calibration The behavior of the DRAM Controller is decided by the VCCSA Load-line. Set to a higher value for system performance, or to a lower value for better thermal solution. VCCSA Current Capability A higher value brings wider total DRAM Controller power range and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously. CPU Power Phase Control Increase phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and better thermal performance. Reduce phase number under light system loading to increase VRM efficiency. CPU Power Duty Control CPU Power Duty Control adjusts the current of every VRM phase and the thermal of every phase component. Chapter 4 4-8 Chapter 4: Software support

DIGI+ Power Control
DIGI+ Power Control allows you to adjust VRM voltage and frequency modulation to enhance
reliability and stability. It also provides the highest power efficiency, generating less heat to
longer component lifespan and minimize power loss.
After installing AI Suite II from the motherboard support DVD, launch DIGI+ Power Control
by clicking
Tool > DIGI+ Power Control
on the AI Suite II main menu bar.
Select
CPU Power
or
DRAM Power
to adjust the power control settings.

Function description
1
CPU Load-line Calibration
It allows you to adjust the voltage settings and control the system temperature.
Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking
performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal.
2
CPU Current Capability
CPU Current Capability provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher
value setting gets higher VRM power consumption delivery.
3
CPU Voltage Frequency
Switching frequency will affect the VRM transient response and component thermal.
Higher frequency gets quicker transient response.
4
VCCSA Load-line Calibration
The behavior of the DRAM Controller is decided by the VCCSA Load-line. Set to a
higher value for system performance, or to a lower value for better thermal solution.
5
VCCSA Current Capability
A higher value brings wider total DRAM Controller power range and extends the
overclocking frequency range simultaneously.
6
CPU Power Phase Control
Increase phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and
better thermal performance. Reduce phase number under light system loading to
increase VRM efficiency.
