    They claim it is 5x2 +2. That is still better than a non doubled 4/5/6. There are two ways doubling work. That board works with having one phase go then the second sub phase on the doubler goes, then the next phase starts. You can also run them so the doubled phases go at the time and you can turn off the doubling for low power applications. So, the way the one on the crosshair works is like a 10 phase but with less fine control. That is perfect for cost effective overclocking, but not great for low power consumption.
