** Genuine All Digital Power Design** GIGABYTE X99 series motherboards use an all digital CPU power design from International Rectifier® which
Includes:: both 4th Generation digital PWM Controllers & industry-leading 3rd Generation Pow I Rstage® controllers. These 100% digital controllers offer incredible precision in delivering power to the motherboard's most power-hungry & energy-sensitive components, allowing enthusiasts to get the absolute maximum performance from their new Intel® Core i 7 Extreme Edition CPUs. **IR Digital PWM & IR Pow I Rstage® ICs** This new generation of IR® digital power controllers & Pow I Rstage® ICs feature Isense technology, which provide more precise current sensing accuracy. This helps evenly distribute the thermal loading between the Power I Rstage® ICs, preventing the overheating of each individual Power I Rstage®, resulting in longer lifespan & better reliability. **GIGABYTE X99 series motherboards feature Server Level Cooper Bussmann Chokes.**
- Server level reliability
- High current capacity
- New design reduces heat created by power loss & provides efficient power delivery to CPU VRM area. ** High Quality POSCAPs for CPU Power Delivery** POSCAP (Polymerized Organic Semiconductor Capacitor) is a high grade product recently which has better ripple current & dissipation factor characteristic. The most commendable of POSCAP is that in all kinds of operating frequencies, this product can maintain low impedance characteristics. So, POSCAP is suitable for motherboards with high-frequency switching power supply. ** Long Lifespan Durable Black Solid Caps** GIGABYTE X99 series motherboards integrate the absolute best quality solid state capacitors that are rated to perform at maximum efficiency for extended periods, even in extreme performance configurations. This provides peace of mind for end users who want to push their system hard, yet demand absolute reliability & stability, with ultra-low ESR
