DIGI+ VRM with Black Metallic Capacitors and 16-phase Super Alloy Power

30%-less power noise and 5X-greater durability

Acclaimed DIGI+ voltage-regulator module (VRM) technology delivers 16-phase power and digital voltage regulation, while Super Alloy Power's Japanese-made 10K black-metallic capacitors, concrete-core chokes and hardened MOSFETs all withstand much greater stress and heat. The result is an ultra-stable graphics card that's forged for extreme overclocking. You benefit from loads of headroom for experimental performance tuning without generating distracting whines and buzzes.
