ASUS TPU As soon as the TPU is activated this chips monitors all possible voltages and clock speeds using the according software. The difference to the EPU is, that TPU will provide as much performance as possible. Therefore it can increase clock speeds and voltages.
     
TUF Thermal Armor The TUF Thermal Armor is a construction for the entire motherboard, not just for selected critical areas. It safeguards the system against hot air generated by plugged in cards and components, keeping temperatures low. With its integrated shunt design, the Thermal Armor improves air circulation, directing it towards important components. It effectively conducts hot air away and out of the case through special airflow channels, contributing to enhanced system stability and extending component lifespan.
