Asus z97-k/usb 3.1 [57/91] Digi vrm

2.5.14 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]

This item affects the VRM transient response speed and the component thermal production.

Select [Manual] to congure a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.

Conguration options: [Auto] [Manual]

DO NOT remove the thermal module. The thermal conditions should be monitored.

The following item appears only when you set the CPU VRM Switching Frequency to

[Manual].

Fixed CPU VRM Switching Frequency (KHz) [250]

This item allows you to set a higher frequency for a quicker transient response speed.

Use the <+> and <‑> keys to adjust the value. The values range from 200KHz to

350KHz with a 50KHz interval.

CPU Power Phase Control [Auto]

This item allows you to set the power phase control of the CPU. Conguration options: [Auto]

[Standard] [Optimized] [Extreme] [Power Phase Response]

DO NOT remove the thermal module when setting this item to [Power Phase Response].

The thermal conditions should be monitored.

The following item appears only when you set the CPU Power Phase Control to [Power

Phase Response].

Power Phase Response [Fast]

This item allows you to set a faster phase response for the CPU to increase system

performance or to slower phase response to decrease DRAM power efciency.

Conguration options: [Ultra Fast] [Fast] [Medium] [Regular]

CPU Power Duty Control [T.Probe]

DIGI + VRM Duty control adjusts the current and thermal conditions of every component’s

phase.

[T. Probe] Select to maintain the VRM thermal balance.

[Extreme] Select to maintain the current VRM balance.
