3 Chapter

DO NOT remove the thermal module when switching to Manual Mode. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

VRM Spread Spectrum [Disabled]

This item appears only when you set the Frequency item to [Auto] and allows you to enable the spread spectrum to enhance system stability.

CPU Power Phase Control [Auto]

Phase number is the number of working VRM phase. Increasing phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and better thermal performance. Reducing phase number under light system loading to increase VRM efficiency

[Auto]

The default power control phase mode

[Standard]

Proceeds phase control depending on the CPU loading.

[Optimized]

Loads the ASUS optimized phase tuning profile.

[Extreme]

Proceeds the full phase mode.

[Manual Adjustment]

Allows manual adjustment.

CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]

[T.Probe]

Maintains the VRM thermal balance.

[Extreme]

Maintains the VRM current balance.

CPU Current Capability [100%]

Allows you to configure the total power range, and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously.

Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] [140%]

Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high CPU loading for extra power support.

CPU Power Thermal Control [130]

A higher temperature brings a wider CPU power thermal range and extends the overclocking tolerance to enlarge the O.C. potential. Use the <+> and <-> keys to adjust the value. The values range from 130 to 151.

DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

CPU Power Response Control [Auto]

The DIG+ VRM controller provides a faster, and precise power response rate for the CPU. Apply a higher value for an extreme overclocking.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Medium] [Fast] [Ultra Fast]

The actual performance boost may vary depending on your CPU configuration.

iGPU Load-line Calibration [Auto]

Allows you to set the iGPU Load-line Calibration.

Configuration options: [Auto] [Regular] [High] [Extreme]

iGPU Current Capability [100%]

Allows you to set the iGPU Current Capability.

Configuration options: [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] [140%]

DO NOT remove the thermal module while changing the DIGI+ VRM related parrameters . The thermal conditions should be monitored.
