AMD CrossFire
Technology
AMD´s
CrossFire boosts image quality along with
renderingspeed,eliminating the need to scale
down screen resolutionsto get the high image
quality you want. CrossFire ignites with the
higher antialiasing, anisotropic filtering,
shading, and texture settings you desire. Adjust
your display configurations, experiment with
your advanced 3D settings, and check the effect
with a real-time 3D-rendered preview within
AMD´s Catalyst™ Control Center to rule your
CrossFire system.

EPU
Enables the Most Energy
Efficient Motherboard in the
World
The EPU utilizes
innovative technology to digitally monitor and
finetune the CPU power supply with improved VR
responses in heavy or light loadings.
Working together with AI Gear 3+, it
automatically provides power for higher
performance or improves efficiency by 50% when
the PC is running low intensity applications -
helping you attain the best possible power
efficiency and energy savings of up to 80.23% to
help save the environment. |

3rd
Generation 8 Phase Power Design 
Longer Life, & Higher
Efficiency!
With power
efficiency so important to operating
temperatures, 3rd generation 8-phase VRM
design leads the industry with its 95% power
efficiency. 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. |

AI Nap 
Minimize
noise and power consumption when temporarily
away!
With AI Nap, users can
instantly snooze your PC without terminating the
tasks. System will continue operating at minimum
power and noise when user is temporarily away.
It keeps downloading files or running
applications in quietest state while you´re
sleeping. Simply click keyboard or mouse, you
can swiftly wake up the system in few
seconds. |

Up to
20°C(36°F) Cooler - Stack Cool 2 
Effective
Fanless Heat Dissipation at
0dB
Stack Cool 2 is a fanless
cooling solution offered exclusively. It
effectively and noiselessly transfers heat
generated by the critical components to the
other side of the specially designed PCB
(printed circuit board) for effective heat
dissipation - making temperatures cooler by up
to 20°C.

 Fanless
Design - 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
airflow 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-flow fan or
passive cooler. The Heat Pipe design is the most
reliable fanless thermal solution to
date.

 Q-Fan 2
Adjusts both CPU fan and chassis fan
speeds according to system loading Q-Fan2
technology intelligently adjusts both CPU fan
and chassis fan speeds according to system
loading to ensure quiet, cool and efficient
operation.
