ErP ready

The motherboard is European Union´s Energy-related Products (ErP) ready, and ErP requires products to meet certain energy efficiency requirements in regards to energy consumptions. This is in line with ASUS vision of creating environment-friendly and energy- efficient products through product design and innovation to reduce carbon footprint of the product and thus mitigate environmental impacts.

1.3.2ASUS DIGI+ VRM Digital Power Design

Digital Power Control: Digital Power Design for the CPU and iGPU

All-new digital CPU power controls work perfectly together to match digital power signal (SVID) requests from the CPU, with ultra-fast sensing and response efficiently delivering precision power. Accurate delivery reduces waste, and provides more stable CPU Vcore voltages. Users can adjust CPU and its processor graphics (iGPU) voltages for various overclocking scenarios, with accurate input through UEFI BIOS tuning or the exclusive ASUS interface. This proprietary design increases overlocking headroom to push performance to its full potential.
