Power subsystem operating modes: 1+1 Redundant Power, 2+0 Combined Power
Supported technologies:
Cold Redundancy - at a power consumption level of up to 40% of the maximum, only one power supply is used, which increases energy efficiency by approximately 10%.
Smart Crises Management and Protection (SCMP) GIGABYTE patented technology for high-load systems. When the power consumption level is more than 50% of the maximum, in the event of a power supply failure, the system switches to a low-power mode to prevent unplanned shutdown.
Smart Ride Through (SmaRT) - a technology that prevents the system from shutting down during a short-term (up to 10-20 ms) power failure by reducing energy consumption (throttling). |
