By unlocking the unused cores, overall system performance becomes greatly enhanced, as well as far more efficient. The CPU Level Up technology allows a user to overclock a CPU to match the specs of a higher CPU. This eliminates the extra cost that comes with upgrading a CPU. The Fan Xpert technology lets a user adjust the speed of the fan depending on the surrounding environment, creating a perfect solution to keep a PC cool and quiet. The M4A87TD EVO also has a separate version called the M4A87TD/USB3. It has the same specs, except that it features USB 3.0 support. When compared to another Asus motherboard, the M4A77TD Pro, the M4A87TD EVO has some advantages. These include the inclusion of several technologies the M4A77TD Pro lacks (such as CPU Level Up and Core Unlocker).
