Advanced VRM Design with Dr.MOS Technology

The motherboard features a robust 10+1+1 phase power delivery system, ensuring absolutely smooth power supply to the processor. The use of the integrated Dr.MOS solution allows for intelligent delivery of higher current to each phase, offering improved thermal performance and superior efficiency. This setup is ideal for overclocking, keeping temperatures at the lowest possible level even during intense gaming or heavy productive workloads.

Explosive DDR5 & PCIe 5.0 Speeds

Fully unlock your memory’s potential with support for Intel® XMP and AMD EXPO™ profiles, allowing effortless DDR5 overclocking. The motherboard is equipped with the Blazing M.2 slot, which adopts the PCI Express 5.0 standard, offering an impressive transfer speed of up to 128Gb/s. Additionally, the reinforced steel slot (Reinforced Steel Slot) ensures signal stability and the secure installation of modern, heavy graphics cards.

Next-Generation Connectivity Wi-Fi 7 & 2.5G LAN

Stay ahead of the curve with built-in Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be), which offers lower latency and higher throughput, ideal for immersive VR/AR experiences. For wired connections, Dragon 2.5 Gb/s LAN provides up to 2.5 times greater bandwidth than standard Gigabit Ethernet. Gamers will especially appreciate the Lightning Gaming Ports, which use two different controller interfaces to connect mouse and keyboard with minimal possible jitter.

Smart Cooling and DIY-Friendly Design

Effective heat dissipation is achieved through the optimized aluminum heatsink (Aluminum Heatsink), ensuring system stability under load. ASRock innovates with the quick-release mechanism M.2 Heatsink Toolless Design, allowing tool-free SSD installation. At the same time, the integrated Post Status Checker with LED indicators lets you monitor the status of the CPU, DRAM, and VGA in real time during startup.

Top Nahimic Audio and RGB Customization

Enjoy a rich audio experience with Nahimic Audio, which delivers vibrant and detailed sound whether you use headphones or speakers via USB, Wi-Fi, or HDMI. For your system’s aesthetics, Polychrome RGB technology and compatibility with SignalRGB offer full control of your LED strips and fans. The pre-installed I/O Shield and Auto Driver Installer simplify installation, making PC setup a pleasant process.
