and dispel heat generated by VRM module effectively, and lower more temperature
compared to other VRM solution. With the high quality power components such as
low RDS (on) MOSFETs, Ferrite core chokes with lower hysteresis loss, and 100%
Japan-made high quality conductive polymer capacitors, ASUS 16-phase VRM
design also ensure longer component life, minimum power loss, and help to reach
