ASUS Quiet Thermal Solution
ASUS Quiet Thermal solution makes system more stable and enhances the
overclocking capability.
ASUS 3rd Generation 8 Phase Power Design
Longer Life, & Higher Efciency!
With power efciency so important to operating temperatures, ASUS' 3rd
generation 8-phase VRM design leads the industry with its 95% power
efciency. High quality power components such as low RDS (on) MOSFETs
for minimum switching loss & lower temperatures, Ferrite core chokes with
lower hysteresis loss, and high quality Japanese-made conductive polymer
capacitors all add up to ensure longer component life and lower power loss
- creating more energy efciency.
Fanless Design - Stack Cool 2
ASUS Stack Cool 2 is a fan-less and zero-noise cooling solution that lowers
the temperature of critical heat generating components. The motherboard
uses a special design on the printed circuit board (PCB) to dissipate heat
these critical components generate.
Fanless Design - Pure Copper Heat-pipe
The Heat Pipe design effectively directs the heat generated by the chipsets to
the heatsink near the back IO ports, where it can be carried away by existing
airow from CPU fan or bundled optional fan. The purpose of the innovative
heat pipe design on this motherboard is that the groundbreaking fanless
design does not have lifetime problems as a chipset fan does. Furthermore, it
provides options for users to install side-ow fan or passive cooler. The Heat
Pipe design is the most reliable fanless thermal solution to date.
DO NOT uninstall the heat-pipe by yourself. Doing so may bend the tubing and
affect the heat dissipation performance.
Optional Fan (for Water-Cooling or Passive-Cooling only)
The optional fan is specically designed to provide sufcient airow over the
CPU power modules and chipset area when water-cooling or passive-cooling
is utilized, ensuring effective heat dissipation for the entire system. See page
2-36 for details.
