Page 57 highlights

2.5.10 DIGI+ VRM CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto] Load-line is defined by Intel VRM specification and affects the CPU power voltage. The CPU working voltage will decrease proportionally depending on the CPU loading. Higher levels of the load-line calibration can get a higher voltage and a better overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal. Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Medium] [High] [Ultra High] [Extreme] The boosted performance may vary depending on the CPU specification. Do not remove the thermal module. CPU Current Capability [Auto] Allows you to configure the total power range, and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously. Configuration options: [Auto] [Level 1] [Level 2] ~ [Level 6] [Level 7] Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high CPU loading for extra power support. CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto] This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal production. Select [Manual] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed. Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual] DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored. The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to [Manual]. Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [250] This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed. Use the and keys to adjust the value. The values range from 250KHz to 500KHz with a 50KHz interval. CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe] DIGI + VRM Duty control adjusts the current and thermal conditions of every component's phase. [T. Probe] Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance. [Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance. ASUS H170-PRO 2-23

DIGI+ VRM
CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto]
Load‑line is defined by Intel VRM specification and affects the CPU power voltage. The CPU
working voltage will decrease proportionally depending on the CPU loading. Higher levels of
the load‑line calibration can get a higher voltage and a better overclocking performance but
increases the CPU and VRM thermal. Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Medium] [High]
[Ultra High] [Extreme]
The boosted performance may vary depending on the CPU specification. Do not remove
the thermal module.
CPU Current Capability [Auto]
Allows you to configure the total power range, and extends the overclocking frequency range
simultaneously. Configuration options: [Auto] [Level 1] [Level 2] ~ [Level 6] [Level 7]
Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high CPU loading for extra power
support.
CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto]
This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal production.
Select [Manual] to configure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.
Configuration options: [Auto] [Manual]
DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to
[Manual]
.
Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [250]
This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.
Use the <+> and <‑> keys to adjust the value. The values range from 250KHz to
500KHz with a 50KHz interval.
CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]
DIGI + VRM Duty control adjusts the current and thermal conditions of every component’s
phase.
[T. Probe] Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.
[Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance.
