FUD Zilla reports ASUS is marketing motherboards with Dual Intelligent Processors (DIP), which is basically a combination of the company's TurboV Processing Unit and Energy Processing Unit to boost performance and increase power efficiency.
The name, Dual Intelligent Processors, was embraced due to the combination of two intelligent co-processors, as Asus calls them. The TurboV Processing Unit, or TPU, is responsible for speeding up performance in real time depending on the need, while maintaining stability and according to Asus, it brings a boost of up to 37 percent.

The Energy Processing Unit, or EPU, monitors actual usage of the system and moderates power consumption by lowering or racing performance once needed.
More info and a list of supported motherboards can be found at ASUS.
