I am leaning towards ASUS for its Low EMI & Power Efficiency Features and would like to learn more about them to select the right Motherboard.
I am looking at the following boards for my new build
- H67M PRO
- Z68 V
- P67M PRO
From my understanding, Low EMI(eg. in ASUS H67M PRO) will protect my health (thats important condering I sit next to the PC most of the day)? Z68 does not have this but have more phase power design & DIGI+ VRM. Perhaps H67/Low EMI will protect my health better but Z68 will save more power?
Low EMI
DIGI+ VRM
Also would like to learn more about the features for power efficiency. Like some boards have 4+2 Phase power (eg. H67M PRO) design some 16 Phase power design (Z68 V). Is 16 Phase alot better or something?
How will DIGI+ VRM (eg from Z68 V) benefit vs non in H67 M PRO?
Also since Z68 has more components being a full ATX board, if I dont use these components, will they waste power also?
Which board will you recommend for heath & power efficiency, I am willing to pay abit more for health. Also if it has significant power bill savings in the mid-long run say 2 years, I am willing to pay more for that too
