ECO Center Pro let’s you cut the power100% to devices.

ECO modeECO mode is the default mode to save energy. It enables all of the motherboards’functions and only turns off all LEDs and PCI slots.

Lounge modeFor multimedia solutions to decode/encode audio & video at full performance. Lounge mode lowers fan speed for a more quiet environment, disables LEDs & LAN.

Server modeA mode for personal cloud service or servers for small business. Server mode lowers CPU power consumption, fan speed, turns LEDs, audio & video functionality off.

All 3 modes are fully customizable to your own preference

Step 2: ECO Center Pro

Step 2: ECO Center ProTurn CPU settings on or off with ease andset temperature targets for fan speeds.
