4.3.5DIGI+ Power Control

DIGI+ PowerControl allows you to adjust VRM voltage and frequency modulation to enhance reliability and stability. It also provides the highest power efficiency, generating less heat to longer component lifespan and minimize power loss.

After installing AI Suite II from the motherboard support DVD, launch DIGI+ Power Control by clicking Tool > DIGI+ Power Control on the AI Suite II main menu bar.

Select CPU Power or DRAM Power to adjust the power control settings.

Function description

1CPU Load-line Calibration

It allows you to adjust the voltage settings and control the system temperature. Higher load-line calibration could get higher voltage and good overclocking performance but increases the CPU and VRM thermal.

2CPU Current Capability

CPU Current Capability provides wider total power range for overclocking. A higher value setting gets higher VRM power consumption delivery.

3CPU Voltage Frequency

Switching frequency will affect the VRM transient response and component thermal. Higher frequency gets quicker transient response.

4VCCSA Load-line Calibration

The behavior of the DRAM Controller is decided by the VCCSA Load- line. Set to a higher value for system performance, or to a lower value for better thermal solution.

5VCCSA Current Capability

A higher value brings wider total DRAM Controller power range and extends the overclocking frequency range simultaneously.

6CPU Power Phase Control

Increase phase number under heavy system loading to get more transient and better thermal performance. Reduce phase number under light system loading to increase VRM efficiency.

7CPU Power Duty Control

CPU Power Duty Control adjusts the current of every VRM phase and the thermal of every phase component.
