Power Consumption:

Now look at the results of this 8-phase digital VRM. It clearly shows how much more efficient it is. We can't understand why other vendors do not endorse the use of the best technology available. While an 8-phase design does require more power while the CPU is idling - the digital uses a few watts less then its analog brother, and it gets very close to the 3-phase VRM design under load. We did also save up to 0.025V while overclocking; of course, this will reduce the CPU power requirements, too.




*Please note the Biostar board is running at 3600MHz.
