Chapter 1 1.3.2 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 include two digital voltage regulator modules (VRMs). An all-new digital controller now allows ultra-precise DRAM tuning in addition to CPU voltage control. 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 ASUS X79 motherboards include New DIGI+ Power Control with two digital voltage regulator modules (VRMs), including an all-new DRAM controller that allows ultra-precise memory tuning in addition to CPU voltage control. This evolution of innovative, industry-leading ASUS technology provides super-accurate voltages for better efficiency, stability and performance. Best in class power efficiency and stability Two critical components work perfectly together to match digital power signal (SVID) requests from the CPU, with ultra-fast sensing and response to efficiently deliver the right level of power on demand. Accurate power reduces wasteful imprecision, and provides more stable CPU Vcore voltages. Increased CPU and DRAM overclocking range With programmable digital controllers onboard, users can adjust CPU and DRAM PWM voltages and frequencies for various overclocking scenarios, with accurate input through UEFI BIOS tuning or the exclusive ASUS interface. System performance can also be customized with specific CPU and DRAM power controls, including new VCCSA load line calibration for increased voltage range, greater VCCSA current capability, and up to 30% more capacitance. This proprietary design, with its precise yet flexible power adjustments, increases overclocking headroom to push performance to its full potential. 8+2 Phase Power Design To fully unleash the latest Intel® Sandy Bridge-E CPU´s potential, this motherboard has adopted a brand new digital 8-phase VRM power design. It delivers high power efficiency and supreme overclocking ability. Furthermore, high quality power components can effectively lower system temperature to ensure longer component lifespan. This motherboard also features an extra 2-phase power dedicated to integrated memory controller. ASUS SSD Caching SSD caching from ASUS is easier than ever. At 3X faster, this feature boosts system performance by using an installed SSD with no capacity limitations as a cache for frequently accessed data. Harness a combination of SSD-like performance and response and hard drive capacity with just one click, no rebooting needed and instant activation for complete ease of use. ASUS P9X79 PRO 1-3

New DIGI+ Power Control
All-New Digital Power Control for both CPU and DRAM
ASUS X79 motherboards include New DIGI+ Power Control with two digital voltage regulator
modules (VRMs), including an all-new DRAM controller that allows ultra-precise memory
tuning in addition to CPU voltage control. This evolution of innovative, industry-leading ASUS
technology provides super-accurate voltages for better efficiency, stability and performance.
Best in class power efficiency and stability
Two critical components work perfectly together to match digital power signal (SVID) requests
from the CPU, with ultra-fast sensing and response to efficiently deliver the right level of
power on demand. Accurate power reduces wasteful imprecision, and provides more stable
CPU Vcore voltages.
Increased CPU and DRAM overclocking range
With programmable digital controllers onboard, users can adjust CPU and DRAM PWM
voltages and frequencies for various overclocking scenarios, with accurate input through
UEFI BIOS tuning or the exclusive ASUS interface. System performance can also be
customized with specific CPU and DRAM power controls, including new VCCSA load line
calibration for increased voltage range, greater VCCSA current capability, and up to 30%
more capacitance. This proprietary design, with its precise yet flexible power adjustments,
increases overclocking headroom to push performance to its full potential.
8+2 Phase Power Design
To fully unleash the latest Intel
®
Sandy Bridge-E CPU´s potential, this motherboard has
adopted a brand new digital 8-phase VRM power design. It delivers high power efficiency and
supreme overclocking ability. Furthermore, high quality power components can effectively
lower system temperature to ensure longer component lifespan. This motherboard also
features an extra 2-phase power dedicated to integrated memory controller.
ASUS SSD Caching
