ASUS P8Z68 DELUXE/GEN3 1-3
Chapter 1
Dual-Channel DDR3 2200(O.C.) / 2133(O.C.) / 1866(O.C.) / 1600 / 1333 / 1066 Support
The motherboard supports DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of 2200(O.
C.) / 2133(O.C.) / 1866(O.C.) / 1600 / 1333 / 1066 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth
requirements of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications. The dual-
channel DDR3 architecture enlarges the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system
performance.
* Due to CPU behavior, DDR3 2200/2000/1800 MHz memory module will run at DDR3 2133/1866/1600
MHz frequency as default.
Complete USB 3.0 Integration
ASUS facilitates strategic USB 3.0 accessibility for both the front and rear panel – 4 USB
3.0 ports in total. Experience the latest plug & play connectivity at speeds up to 10 times
faster than USB 2.0. The P8Z68 DELUXE/GEN3 affords greater convenience to high speed
connectivity.
Extra SATA 6.0 Gb/s Support
The Intel
®
Z68 Express Chipset natively supports the next-generation Serial ATA (SATA)
interface, delivering up to 6.0 Gb/s data transfer. ASUS provides extra SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports
with enhanced scalability, faster data retrieval, and double the bandwidth of current bus
systems.
ASUS Front Panel USB 3.0 Box
ASUS feature-proofs your PC with full USB 3.0 implementation for better computing through
super-fast data transfers. The provided standard-sized USB 3.0 front panel box is compatible
with most PC cases, letting you enjoy the faster throughput of USB 3.0 without relegating
cables and devices to the hard-to-reach rear I/O or having to purchase a new case.
1.3.2 Dual Intelligent Processors 2 with DIGI+ VRM
The world’s rst Dual Intelligent Processors from ASUS pioneered the use of two onboard
chips—EPU (Energy Processing Unit) and TPU (TurboV Processing Unit). New generation
Dual Intelligent Processors 2 with DIGI+ VRM digital power design launch control into a new
era, empowering users with superior exibility and perfect precision to ensure optimized
performance, extreme system stability and greater power efciency.
DIGI+ VRM
New ASUS DIGI+ VRM upgrades motherboard power delivery to a digital standard. The 16
digital architecture delivers twice the precision power. With iGPU on P8Z68 DELUXE/GEN3
motherboards, DIGI+ VRM intelligently adjust Vcore PWM, integrated graphics voltages
and frequency modulation to minimize power loss through BIOS tuning and the exclusive
user interface. It increases overclocking range while performance reaches its full potential,
adjusting frequencies dynamically and cutting EM interference by half to enhance system
stability through enabled spread spectrum. The DIGI+ VRM digital power design empowers
users with superior exibility and perfect precision to ensure optimized performance. extreme
system stability, and greater power efciency.
