Robust Power Design
Stable power is crucial for maximizing the performance of Intel® Core™ Ultra Processors (Series 2). The PRIME B860M-A WIFI-CSM is designed to meet the needs of high-core-count CPUs. It features 7(80A) + 1(80A) + 1(80A) + 1(80A) power stages that integrate high-side and low-side MOSFETs and drivers into packages rated for up to 80 amperes each. This configuration ensures optimal power delivery, efficiency, stability, and performance for both current and future Intel® processors.
- Six-layer PCB design: The multi-layered printed circuit board design quickly dissipates heat around the voltage regulators to improve overall system stability and provide the CPU with more overclocking headroom.
- ProCool connector: Proprietary connectors augment the motherboard’s link to the power supply with an 8-pin connector that passes 12 volts of power directly to the processor. Each connector features solid pins that can handle more current than hollow-pin connectors.
- Power Saving: Optimize power with CPU, lighting, and fan settings.
- Digi+ VRM control: The Digi+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) delivers real-time control over voltage droop, automatically switching frequency and power-efficiency settings.
