I have just bought on an online shop a new mainboard from Asus that has EPU-4 Engine technology.

I have found only this page that describe the concept, but I was not able to find additional details.

Do you have any more info? Do you now if it should work only with the new ATI 4770 HD that is not mentioned in the list?

We have one of that EPU-4 capable ASUS motherboards in the "playroom", coupled with an MSI-8800GTS. According to the Asus EPU-4 utility, it is achieving power savings at time when we are not fragging our lives away over CoD 4. :)

Without a power measurer, it's hard for me to determine if there are actual power savings, but the EPU-4 utility does function similarly to an automatic over/down-clocking software.

Also, it's just ASUS marketing FUD that says only ASUS branded graphics card can benefit from EPU-4 - any graphic card should be able to benefit from it. ASUS is just saying that they tested their OWN cards to confirm support with EPU-4.
