VRM Overview

Specifications

The ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WiFi) features a 6 phase VRM in a simple 4 + 2 configuration. No doublers are used.


This ASP1400 controller supports a maximum of four Vcore phases and two SOC phases. To improve the thermal properties and overclocking potential of the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WiFi), ASUS has two power stages per Vcore phase.


The ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WiFi) uses the SiC639 from Vishay across the board. These 50 A power stages give ASUS a total of 100 A per Vcore phase. While the result is far less sophisticated than a true 8-phase, the power output is there.

With a maximum output of 400 A, the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO (WiFi) has more than enough for the top specced Intel i9-9900K.
