AMD A85X FCH Chipset
Asus F2A85-V Pro heat sink pipe
CPU VRM area: 6+2 Digital Power phase
ASUS use taiwan solid capacitors and a 6+2 Digital phase power design on this board
Asus used High Quality Mosfets. Two Philips 5030AL MOSFETs act on the low-side, and a single 7030AL 70A is used as the high-side. These MOSFETs have very low RDS(ON) which means they will have lower temperature as they are switching on and off.
Those Logic Mosfets using Level N-channel enhancement mode Field-Effect Transistor, which result High efficiency due to low switching and conduction losses.
MLCC inductor used a row of Swiss R68 TRIO closed inductance.

ASUS VRM Digi+ EPU: Dual Intelligent Processors 3 - SMART DIGI+ fully digital, 6+2 Phase power
Asus added Realtek ALC892 High Definition Audio codec, output 7.1-Channel Surround Sound
Asmedia ASM1042 USB 3.0 Controller: Support 2 USB3.0 port at I/O port
Nuvoton NCT6779D is a Super I/O Controller: Used for keyboard controller with PS/2 mouse, wake-up functions/HW Monitor functions and fan-speed control.
Realtek RTL8111F Gigabit LAN-controller
Asmedia ASM1445 chip, output high speed TMDS level shift ICs for High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), Digital Video Interface (DVI), DisplayPort (DP) and DVI video output.
ASUS TurboV Processing Unit (TPU): TPU help you Auto-overclock your processor speed up to 37% faster
Asus F2A85-V Pro board used single Bios chip: Winbond 25064FVA1G-UEFI ROM 64MB
Asus DirectKey: you can easily enter the BIOS automatically when the PC is on standby power with a press of a button. It saves you time during boot-up from having to repeatedly press the DEL key.
Asus Bios FlashBack:
Just plug in a USB flash drive containing the BIOS file, and press the BIOS Flashback button for 3 seconds with the power supply connected. The UEFI BIOS will then automatically update without requiring further interaction. [Must be Fat32 format]
