Asus H97M-PLUS Computer Hardware User Manual


 
2.5.11 DIGI+ VRM
CPU Load-Line Calibration [Auto]
Load‑line is dened by Intel VRM specication 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. Conguration options: [Auto] [Regular] [Medium] [High]
[Ultra High] [Extreme]
The boosted performance may vary depending on the CPU specication. Do not remove
the thermal module.
CPU VRM Switching Frequency [Auto]
Frequency switching affects the VRM transient response speed and the thermal component.
Higher frequency gets quicker transient response. Conguration options: [Auto] [Manual].
Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [250]
This item appears only when you set CPU VRM Switching Frequency to [Manual] and
allows you to set a xed CPU VRM Switching frequency. Use the <+> or <‑> to adjust
the value. The value ranges from 200KHz to 350KHz with a 50KHz interval.
CPU Power Phase Control [Auto]
Allows you to set the CPU power phase control based on the CPU. Conguration options:
[Auto] [Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] [Power Phase Response].
DO NOT remove the thermal module when switching to Extreme and Power Phase
Response. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
Power Phase Response [Fast]
This item appears only when you set the CPU Power Phase Control item to [Power
Phase Response]. Select [Ultra Fast] for a faster response. The reaction time will be
longer when [Regular] is selected. Conguration options: [Ultra Fast] [Fast] [Medium]
[Regular]
CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]
DIGI + VRM Duty control adjusts the current of every VRM phase and thermal conditions of
every phase component.
[T. Probe] Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.
[Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance.
DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.
CPU Current Capability [Auto]
Allows you to congure the total power range, and extends the overclocking frequency range
simultaneously. Conguration options: [Auto] [100%] [110%] [120%] [130%] [140%]
Choose a higher value when overclocking, or under a high CPU loading for extra power
support.
