A steadier power supply contributes to a cooler, quieter and more stable system.

8-Phase Power Design, an exclusive feature found only on ASUS motherboards, delivers steadier power supply for the CPU by generating less heat than conventional power solutions.

Cool and Quiet

8-Phase Power Design operates at 15°C (36°F) lower than conventional power solutions, providing a cool computing environment without extra cost on expensive CPU cooling fans.
‧Lower temperature means lower fan speed, and the result is peace and quiet.
‧Stable power and less heat also enable better overclocking margin for top performance.

Longer component lifespan
8-Phase Power Design reduces input ripple current and output ripple voltage, keeping the CPU and power modules from the risk of high power stress. As a result, the lifespan of CPU and power modules are much longer and the system is more stable.
Example: If CPU needs 80A Current
4-Phase Design -> per phase shares 20A current
8-Phase Design -> per phase shares 10A current

Reliability under heavy-loading and overclocking
8-Phase Power Design has the advantage of quick transient response and dependability. It acts faster than 4-phase power designs to stabilize output current and voltage. This is especially critical when the CPU requires immediate current support when under heavy work load or overclocking mode.
