How does the "Super Charger" utility work on an MSi Z68MA-G45

[Deemo13]

Hey community,

So I got a new motherboard finally to go with my 2500K (I previously had a H61, bad idea), so I picked up a Z68. This motherboard is really nice and has a boatload of cool features. But I cannot figure out how to use the "Super Charger" utility. Apparently it is used to charge phones and stuff really fast, but it doesn't seem to be charging my Samsung Focus any faster than it usually does. Does it need to be connected to the 3.0 port or something?

Any help is appreciated, but if it doesnt work nbd.

Thanks,
-Gunner

it doesnt really make that much of a difference, it does to the more popular smartphones such as iphones. the super charger tech also keeps power going threw the USB ports when the computer is off so you can charge your USB devices while your computer is off.

Marshal11 is wrong. It won't work on that board. Only P67 and H67 series boards. There is a "red" connecter on the motherboard that you plug the cable to the front plate. It is a very useful utility

I thought super charger worked on the usb 3 port ? Only works on certain phones though
