VRM: The Power Behind Stable Performance
A VRM, or Voltage Regulator Module, is responsible for converting power from the power supply unit into the precise voltage required by the processor. CPUs and GPUs operate at low voltages but demand high current, and VRMs handle this transformation efficiently to keep components running safely.
How VRMs Work
VRMs regulate voltage through a combination of phases that include controllers, chokes, capacitors, and MOSFETs. Together, they smooth incoming power, reduce electrical noise, and maintain consistent voltage under varying workloads. More robust VRM designs can better handle power spikes during demanding tasks like gaming, rendering, or compiling code.
