  • Page 19: Appendix

    Appendix I Subject 1: Regarding the Application of 3-Phase or 3+1 Phase Power Supply Mold As a result of the increasing power consumption demand from many AMD CPUs in current market, we suggest not to use a CPU that demands more than 65W power consumption at work for an AMD CPU compliant board that comes with power supply design as 3 phase or 3+1 phase mold and MOSFET design as working in High SideX1 and Low SideX1 mold so as to avoid MOSFET getting...
  • Page 20 Solution: We recommend users choose motherboards with power design of 4-phase, 4+1 phase or more for CPUs that demand 89W or 95W power consumption. We recommend users choose motherboards with power design of 5-phase, 5+1 phase or more for CPUs that demand 125W or 140W power consumption. Subject 2: Suggestion on choosing electric fan Both the amount of electric current to MOSFET and the heat produced from the motherboard go up as AMD’s CPU power...
  • Page 21 Subject 3: Thunder Protection Feature Introduction: Thunder is such formidable natural force that it can render massive damage to electronic products of all kinds. In thunderstorm season computer systems without powerful thunder protection designs are vulnerable to electric surge damage. High-priced building with thunder protection measures may be a good choice, but usually costly and with corners uncovered.
  • Page 22 Bonus of Thunder-protection Motherboard Thunder series motherboards adopt dual thunder protection walls to cover every corner in network loops. Such a complete thunder protection provided to users, especially cybercafés means less repair cost and more effective business time. Thunder series can guard system stability with effect.
