With Multi-phase PWM IC, dual channel PWM design and Hi-c CAP, which lead to better power converting, reducing noise and expand the lifespan and stability.
Hi-c CAP can bring 100x faster electrical conductivity than solid capacitor and less power loss. PWM brings more power efficiency, thus lower the real power spend.

Functions designed with button to be easy use.
Help power-users tweaking process in-chasis enviornment
Onboard SATA ports are stacked on the mainboard to avoid mechanical issue with giant graphic cards like 8800 Ultra.

Key components status hardware monitor.
