Advanced power and components

Eight power phases ensure stable and smooth power delivery to the processor, even under heavy loads. The board uses premium 60A power chokes, which achieve up to three times better saturation current compared to traditional solutions, providing enhanced Vcore voltage. Integrated Dr.MOS modules, optimised for synchronous buck-set applications, can deliver up to 50A of continuous current per phase, resulting in better thermal performance and higher efficiency. The Sapphire Black PCB uses high-density glass fabric, which reduces the gaps between PCB layers and protects against electrical shorts caused by humidity.

Storage and expandability

Four SATA III ports are available for connecting traditional hard drives and SSDs. The Ultra M.2 slot with a PCIe Gen3 x4 interface enables data transfers of up to 32Gb/s and also supports SATA3 6Gb/s M.2 modules. AMD Smart Access Memory technology removes the traditional limitation on CPU access to the graphics card's memory, expanding the data channel and boosting overall system performance. Realtek Gigabit Ethernet ensures fast and stable wired network connectivity.

Audio and personalisation

The 7.1-channel HD audio card with a Realtek ALC887/897 codec provides high-quality sound output. The board offers an RGB header and an addressable RGB header for connecting LED strips, fans, or other components with a maximum power draw of 3A. The standard RGB header supports 5050 LED strips up to 2 metres long, while the addressable header supports WS2812B strips with a maximum of 80 LEDs. Polychrome RGB technology lets you synchronise lighting across compatible accessories. Full Spike Protection safeguards sensitive components from voltage spikes, and the ASRock Live Update & APP Shop tools make it easy to update firmware and manage your system.

Choosing a motherboard

When choosing a motherboard (or mainboard), it is important to pay close attention to the motherboard's socket type, form factor, and chipset. These are the most critical parameters that ensure the board is compatible with the processor, expansion cards, and other components. The specific socket determines the choice of a suitable processor, while the other connectors will dictate the selection of other components for your future computer.
