  • Suport On/Off Charge
    Tehnologia GIGABYTE On/Off Charge permite încărcarea iPhone, iPad şi iPod Touch fie că PC-ul este pornit, în standby sau chiar oprit. Fiind derivată a tehnologiei apreciate GIGABYTE 3x USB Power, On/Off Charge permite echipamentelor să primeasca mai mult curent din porturile USB ale plăcilor de bază GIGABYTE faţă de cât permit porturile USB standard, astfel încât încărcarea din PC sa fie la fel de rapidă ca cea cu încărcător dedicat...mai mult
    *Din cauza anumitor limitări ale telefoanelor mobile, utilizatorii pot fi nevoiti să conecteze telefonul mobil la PC înainte ca PC-ul să intre în modul S4/S5 pentru a se permite încărcarea rapidă de la un port USB fără ON/OFF Charge. Rezultatele încărcării pot varia în funcţie de model.
    *Suportul pentru 3X USB power design poate varia în funcţie de model.

  • 3x USB Power Boost
    Plăcile de bază GIGABYTE permit o creștere a puterii de 3x pe porturile USB, oferind o mai mare compatibilitate și mai multă putere pentru echipamentele USB. Design-ul unic de alimentare USB de la GIGABYTE este de asemenea capabil să regularizeze eficient ieșirea pe toată gama de tensiuni, ce îmbunătățește și mai mult compatibilitatea cu echipamentele USB. În plus, siguranțele dedicate cu rezistență scăzută asigură căderi mai mici de tensiune și permit o livrare de energie mai stabilă și mai puternică.


    (notă) Doar porturile USB frontale suportă 3X USB Power.
