APPENDIX I

Subject 1: Regarding the Application of 3-Phase or 3+1 Phase Power Supply Mold

As a result of the increasing power consumption demand from many AMD CPUs in current market, we suggest not to use a CPU that demands more than 65W power consumption at work for an AMD CPU compliant board that comes with power supply design as 3 phase or 3+1 phase mold and MOSFET design as working in High SideX1 and Low SideX1 mold so as to avoid MOSFET getting burned or other phenomena like a halted system or system instability. So please take notice of the CPU you are using and make sure that it is one that demand not more than 65 W to ensure long-term working order.

Note：

1.The relation between CPU Power Consumption Amount and Power Phase: depending on difference in voltage rating, one-phase of power can provide 25~30W to the motherboard.

2.3- Phase Power Supply Mold: motherboard with 3 inductances for CPU power supply, and each inductance carries with it 2 MOSFET (6 MOSFETs in total) (Figure1)

3+1–Phase Power Supply Mold: motherboard with 4 inductances for CPU power supply, and each inductance carries with it 2 MOSFET (8 MOSFETs in total) (Figure2)

Solution：

We recommend users choose motherboards with power design of 4-phase, 4+1 phase or more for CPUs that demand 89W or 95W power consumption.

We recommend users choose motherboards with power design of 5-phase, 5+1 phase or more
