AIDA64
AIDA begins things as always and straight away we have a new OC3D personal best with the Threadripper 2990WX and Zenith Extreme Alpha combination producing the highest ZLib score we've seen.

SMDs at the back are capacitors for ironing out the current. Either aluminium polymer, or tantalum. Pretty much all VRM controllers on motherboards have 8 PWM signals. ASUS uses 8 PWM signals with 2 power stages for each signal. And in that case 8 PWM signals interleaving. MSI uses doublers for each PWM signal so in the end there are 16 PWM signals interleaving (one for each power stage). Both VRMs spread the load over 16 power stages for better efficiency. |
I meant to say PWM on the back not mosfet.... Just me being a spaz, I knew what I meant
