GPU Chip Voltage Controller

GPU voltage is a six-phase design managed by a Monolithic Power Systems MP2979 controller.


Monolithic MP86956 DrMOS components are used for GPU voltage; they are rated for 70 A of current each.

Memory Voltage, VRM Configuration
Memory Chip Voltage Controller

It seems there's two memory voltages, one marked in red, the other in green. Both are managed by a second Monolithic MP2979.


For memory, Monolithic MP86950 DrMOS with a 50 A rating are used.


This Realtek RTD2173 chip is used to enable the HDMI 2.1 functionality, by converting a DisplayPort signal to HDMI.
