Support for DDR5 XMP & EXPO
ASRock, which originates from the design concept "built for stable and reliable", does not compromise on any detail. The motherboards are made with low-loss materials, allowing enthusiastic users to enjoy enhanced DDR5 memory overclocking performance by enabling the pre-tested profiles. Ensure that the memory modules are capable of Intel XMP/AMD EXPO and overclocking can become so accessible, satisfying, and sweat-free.
PCIe Gen5 Blazing M.2
The Blazing M.2 hosts the latest PCI Express 5.0 standard for double the bandwidth compared to the previous generation, with an astonishing transfer speed of 128GB/s, it is ready to unleash the full potential of future ultra-fast SSDs.
M.2 Heatsink
The very large M.2 heatsink made of aluminum alloy effectively improves heat dissipation to keep high-speed M.2 SSDs as cool as possible, capable of offering better stability while maintaining top performance.
Graphics Card Holder
Place your heavy graphics card on the base. Connect it to your motherboard and the frame with screws. Slide flexibly up and down to perfectly adjust the height required to position your graphics card in place.
Polychrome RGB
In addition to the built-in RGB lighting, it also features built-in RGB headers and an addressable RGB header that allow the motherboard to connect with compatible LED devices such as strips, CPU fans, heatsinks, case, and so on. Users can also synchronize the RGB LED devices to the certified Polychrome RGB Sync accessories to create their own unique lighting effects.
Dragon 2.5 Gb/s LAN
The intelligent 2.5Gb/s LAN platform is designed for maximum networking performance for the demanding requirements of home networking, content creators, online gamers, and high-quality streaming media. Enhancing networking performance up to 2.5 times the bandwidth compared to standard Gigabit Ethernet, you will enjoy the fastest and uncompromised connectivity experience for gaming, file transfers, and backups.
Wi-Fi 6E 802.11ax
WiFi 6E technology has expanded into the entire new 6GHz spectrum band, providing more WiFi capabilities and delivering even better and faster internet traffic. In addition to providing higher speeds, WiFi 6E also enhances lower latency and supports service levels equivalent to 5G networks.
Integrated eDP Signal Connector
An eDP signal slot is integrated into selected ASRock motherboards and supports two functions simultaneously - power supply and digital display signal transmission. The connector reserves space for upgrading with the exclusive ASRock 13.3" Side Panel Kit.
With the 13.3" Side Panel, users can easily add an LCD screen inside the computer, adding a sub-screen for monitoring the computer's status, watching videos, and much more.
The IO shield is adjustable during installation, thus fitting perfectly into the case without any mechanical issues.
