24+1+2 Power Phase DesignFeaturing sturdy components and completely smooth power delivery to the CPU. Plus, it offers unmatched overclocking capabilities and enhanced performance with the lowest temperature for advanced gamers as well.

8 Layer PCBThe 8 Layer PCB provides stable signal traces and power shapes delivering lower temperature and higher energy efficiency, ensures a reliable and long-lasting system while delivering ultimate performance without any compromise.

Get the most from your memoryDerived from the “built for stable and reliable” design concept, ASRock does not compromise on any details. This motherboards is built with low-loss materials, enthusiasts are able to enjoy the boost of DDR5 memory overclocking performance up to 7000MHz and beyond by enabling the pre-tested profiles. Make sure the memory modules are Intel® XMP/AMD EXPO™ capable and overclocking can be made so affordable, satisfying and absolutely no sweat at all.

Reinforced DIMM SlotThe reinforced DIMM slot is surfaced mounted onto the motherboard to give better physical strength as well as a more stable memory signal, with this superior revolutionary design, it is able to dramatically overclock DRAM module up to insane frequency.

DIY Friendly DesignDue to the unique electrical architecture of DDR5 DIMM, there’s a high risk of damaging the memory module if AC power isn’t disconnected properly during removal or installation. To prevent this, ASRock has implemented a trouble free protection circuit on every DDR5 motherboard, lowers the risk of damaging your memory module.

PCIe 5.0 + Surface-Mount TechCompared to conventional DIP style PCIe slot, the SMT type PCIe slot improves signal flow and maximise stability under high speeds, a key breakthrough to fully support the lightning speeds of the latest PCIe 5.0 standard. The latest PCI Express 5.0 is capable of perform up to a breathtaking bandwidth of 128GBps, ready to unleash the full potential of future high end graphic cards.

1x PCIe Gen5 Blazing M.2The Blazing M.2 accommodates the latest PCI Express 5.0 standard to perform twice the bandwidth compared to previous generation, with a breathtaking 128Gb/s transfer speed, it is ready to unleash the full potential of future ultrafast SSDs.

ASRock POLYCHROME RGBIn addition to the built-in RGB illumination, it also features onboard RGB headers and an addressable RGB header that allows the motherboard to be connected to compatible LED devices such as strips, CPU fans, coolers, chassis ETC. Users may also synchronise RGB LED devices across the Polychrome RGB Sync-certified accessories to create their own unique lighting effects.
