Power is the key to unleashing true performance, and nowhere is this more evident than with the unique power delivery system specially designed and engineered for GIGABYTE's new 6-series motherboards. In order to offer the best power delivery to these high performance CPUs, GIGABYTE engineers have redesigned the traditional PWM to include the latest Voltage Regulator Down (VRD) 12 specification from Intel® and specially engineered components and technologies, such as Dual CPU Power and Power Phase Boost with Multi-gear Switching, to deliver first class system performance and stability. |

Like the pistons and cylinders of a car engine, the design of the motherboard Voltage Regulator Module (VRM), component quality and number of power phases greatly affects motherboard performance. GIGABYTE engineers were first to realize not only the importance of using the best quality components for this critical area, but also that with more power phases there can be more power available to your CPU. GIGABYTE 6 series motherboards with their new redesigned VRM, promise to deliver first class system performance and power stability. With only the best quality components and unique design, incorporating Dual Power Switching and Power Phase Boost with Multi-gear Switching, your CPU can enjoy more unadulterated power from the motherboard than from previous motherboards. |

New VRD 12 (Voltage Regulator Down Specification) Design |
| |
All GIGABYTE P67/H67 motherboards are Intel® VRD12 Qualified due to their Intel® VRD12
compliant Intersil PWM controller! |
|
|
 |
GIGABYTE 6 series motherboards are designed with Intel’s latest Voltage Regulator Down specification (VRD 12), offering new features such as SerialVID (SVID) that transfer power management information between the processor and voltage regulator controller. This allows more robust and efficient signaling control between the CPU and PWM controller, hence delivering a more energy efficient platform. |

Faster Response! |
No delay, Don't need Analogue-Digital &
Digital-Analogue conversion |
Signals from a 100% hardware PWM to VRM components do not require a conversion from Analogue signal to Digital and back to Analogue again, this allows for faster response for voltage changes as CPU workload varies. |
| |
|
|
 |
|
Higher Accuracy! |
Precise V-core control, No digitization errors |
Signals from 100% hardware PWMs are processed immediately in real time, without the need for sampling the signals into digital waveform. This eliminates the risks of signal sampling error due to digitization especially during rapid signal change. |

|
|
GIGABYTE 6 series motherboards implement the industry’s latest VRD 12 specification to deliver the most precise power delivery for the latest 2nd Generation Intel® Core processors. |

|
Ultra Stable! |
Pure Hardware Design,
No risk of firmware crashing |
No programmable logic involved for processing PWM signals, so there is less risk of programming errors that may lead to CPU damage. |
| |
|
 |
Ultra Durable! |
|
Better ESD Protection & Noise Proofing |
|
Greater tolerance to ESD and electrical Noise, thereby reducing component damage and PWM signals are not effected. |

Power Phase Boost with Multi-Gear Switching |
| |
GIGABYTE 6 series motherboards also feature Power Phase Boost with Multi-Gear Switching.
** This operates both when Dual Power Switching is active and when it is not. |
|
| |
Normal Loading |
| |
12 Power Phases are active
with Dynamic 6-Gear Switching |
|
| |
Heavy Loading |
| |
Full 24 Power Phases are active
with Dynamic 6-Gear Switching |
|
 |
 |
** Multi-Gear Switching requires system to enable GIGABYTE Dynamic Energy Saver program.
The number of power phases for each Gear switching may vary between models.
