Cool
'n' Quiet !
Implemented on the K8V Deluxe motherboard, AMD
Cool 'n' Quiet! Technology is the latest feature
found on ASUS solutions. Cool 'n' Quiet! enables
the CPU to monitor system loading and automatically
tune CPU voltage and frequency, which results
in lower temperature. Speed of the cooling fan
is intelligently adjusted according to CPU temperature
fluctuation from CPU loading adjustment, conserving
power and reducing noise from the fan motor at
the same time. If you are not using AMD's packaged
fan, simply activate ASUS' Q-Fan feature to enjoy
a quiet operation. The application interface of
Cool 'n' Quiet! Technology clearly illustrates
CPU status, providing a cool and quiet computing
environment that also lengthens the lifecycle
of CPUs and fans.
