DrMOS With its 3-in-1 combined design and special circuity, the DrMOS solution can drop the motherboards temperature by up to 16C when compared similar motherboards with a more traditional MOS solution. This temperature drop helps extend the life of the board and brings increased stability when overclocking. DrMOS also combines the IC, bottom MOSFET and TOP MOSFET to make a smoother faster transfer of electricity across the board. The result is improved performance when compared to traditional decentralised MOS designs. |

Active Phase Switching (APS) Active Phase Switching (APS) technology is an intelligent design that helps to save energy on MSI’s mainboards. The underlying idea is to switch off the power supply as soon as no electricity is needed, and when the system needs more resources again, APS will automatically adjust electricity supply accordingly. APS will automatically detect your processor’s loading at any given time and save energy accordingly. This is only possible by means of a very advanced power controlling technology. Other than software-based solutions, APS technology stands out from MSI's own research. The specially developed IC chip can operate automatically depending on the demands of the power supply, which is to reduce the total power usage. |
|
M-Flash Compared to the common mainboard which needs extra BIOS chips, MSI’s M-Flash has a double advantage.
