Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 Preview :: One-Click Power Savings

Author: Doc Overclock · 02-01-2008 · Category: Motherboards

GIGABYTE's user-friendly Dynamic Energy Saver interface allows you to turn on and off the power saving features with a simple click of the Dynamic Energy Saver button. Not only can users see real-time CPU power consumption in Watts, but once Dynamic Energy Saver is enabled, users can also see how much power they are actually saving.

Power Saving Mode (meter mode)

In Meter Mode, GIGABYTE’s Dynamic Energy Saver shows how much power they have saved in a set period of time. Like a trip odometer in a car, users are able to reset their power savings meter to zero. This is a very interesting feature for a number of user groups that may catch on well as it becomes the mainstream.

Total Power Saving Mode (Total mode)

In Total Mode, users are able to see how much total power savings they have accumulated since activating Dynamic Energy Saver for the first time. Even if the Dynamic Energy Saver functionality is turned off, the total amount of power saved will be recorded until reactivated, when total power savings will resume recording power savings.
