K10N78hSLI-WiFi

Feature IES Feature OCT Feature Solid Caps Feature HybirdSLI Feature PCIe2 Feature 1394 Feature WiFi

28th April, 2008, Taipei

Designed as a discrete ATX motherboard with Hybrid SLI GeForce® Boost feature, K10N78hSLI-WiFi is full of diversity with wide selection of graphics cards by supporting PCI-E 2.0 card and Hybrid SLI function. While we are pursuing for the highest technology and ultimate performance, ASRock has not forgotten about the mission to save the world resources. K10N78hSLI-WiFi is designed with Intelligent Energy Saver. You can easily find out how much energy you have saved, CPU power, CPU voltage and CPU frequency statics through the IES. ASRock MB implements AMD PSI (Power State Indicator) spec, which is a function for AM2+ platform to improve energy efficiency by disabling extra phases when CPU is at light loading. When your PC is at idle mode, the feature can effectively increase Voltage Regulator Efficiency by 16% and decrease Voltage Regulator power consumption by 48% by disabling extra phases without reducing CPU performance and reliability. But, if you want to run the latest animated games with Hybrid SLI mode, the Intelligent Energy Saver will activate up to 4 phases and give your system the best boost. All you have to do is to activate the Intelligent Energy Saver.
