Features
Premium 45A Power Choke
Compared to traditional chokes, ASRock’s premium 45A power chokes effectively
make the saturation current up to three times better, thus providing enhanced
and improved Vcore voltage to the motherboard.
Dual-Stack MOSFET for CPU Power
Dual-Stack MOSFET (DSM) is another innovative MOSFETs design by ASRock. The
silicon die area is increased by stacking two dies into one MOSFET. The larger
the die area, the lower Rds(on). Compared to traditional discrete MOSFET, DSM
with larger die area provides extreme lower Rds(on) 1.2 mO, so the power supply
for the CPU Vcore is more efficient.
High Density Glass Fabric PCB
What you’ve never understood about your computer is that it is scared to
death of water, H2O, humidity or whatever you’d like to name it. And even though
you do not see the water, actually there may be lots of excessive moist in the
air killing your motherboard silently and slowly. No, your motherboard doesn’t
melt when in contact with water like the wicked witch of the west, but it dies
of short circuit. Luckily, ASRock has a new High Density Glass Fabric PCB design
that reduces the gaps between the PCB layers to protect the motherboard against
electrical shorts caused by humidity.
6 Power Phase Design
The power phase design offers smooth power delivery to the CPU, unmatched
overclocking capabilities, lower temperature for advanced gamers, and reinforced
system stability for taking on all sorts of arduous computing tasks.
802.11ac WiFi Dual-Band (2.4/5 GHz)
This motherboard comes with an exclusive 802.11ac WiFi (5G WiFi) module that
supports up to 433Mbps wireless networks and Bluetooth v4.0. Experience up to
144% speed boost compared to your old 802.11n WiFi!
UEFI EZ Mode
EZ mode is a dashboard which contains multiple readings of the system’s
current status. You can check the most crucial information of your system, such
as CPU speed, DRAM frequency, SATA information, fan speed, etc.
Dual Gigabit LAN
Users are able to connect two LAN cables to this motherboard's rear i/o.
ELNA Audio Caps
Who says high quality audio is only available on high-end motherboards?
ASRock applied ELNA audio capacitors on mainstream and entry-level motherboards!
Compared with traditional solid caps, the leakage current of ELNA audio caps is
merely 3uA. This is the key to reduce noise level significantly and satisfy even
the pickiest audiophiles.
Digi Power
Unlike traditional motherboards that use analog power, this motherboard uses
a next generation digital PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) design, which provides
CPU Vcore voltage more efficiently and smoothly, so that the stability and
lifespan of the motherboard is greatly enhanced.
Supports DDR4 3200+ (OC)
Supports the latest DDR4 memory modules and most extreme memory
performance!
Win 7 USB Patcher
Due to chipset limitation, when you want to install Windows® 7 on this MB,
you may need to use “Win 7 USB Patcher” to create a new ISO file, or check this
page for more details on how to install Windows® 7 OS.

Full Spike Protection
Some sensitive digital components on the motherboard are vulnerable to power
surges, the excessive current may cause your system to malfunction immediately.
ASRock Full Spike Protection includes various technologies to prevent your
motherboard’s components from being damaged by these unexpected voltage
spikes.
ASRock Cloud
ASRock Cloud* technology makes your mobile devices connect to your PC
seamlessly and supports multi devices for accessing File Explorer cloud service
simultaneously!
USB Key
In a world where time is money, why waste precious time everyday typing
usernames to log in to Windows? Why should we even bother memorizing those foot
long passwords? Nobody has time for that! Just plug in the USB Key and let your
computer log in to windows automatically!
Restart to UEFI
Fast Boot is so fast that it is impossible for users to enter the UEFI setup
utility during POST. Therefore, ASRock Restart to UEFI technology allows users
to easily enter the UEFI setup utility automatically when turning on the PC next
time. It is designed for those who constantly need to enter the UEFI setup
utility.
ASRock OMG (Online Management Guard)
Limit and control your children's time spent on the internet. ASRock OMG
(Online Management Guard) technology allows you to establish an internet curfew
or restrict internet access at specified times. Administrators are able to
schedule the starting and ending hours of internet access granted to other
users.
UEFI Tech Service
Contact ASRock Tech Service by sending a support request from the UEFI setup
utility if you are having trouble with your personal computer. Users may try to
choose the category of the issue they have encountered, describe the problem in
detail, and then attach an optional picture or log file for our technical
support team.
Dehumidifier
Dampness kills most electronics, so it's a better idea to keep your personal
computer dry. Now users may prevent motherboard damages due to dampness by
enabling Dehumidifier. When it is enabled, the computer will power on
automatically to dehumidify the system after entering S4/S5 state.
Easy Driver Installer
For users that don’t have an optical disk drive to install the drivers from
our support CD, Easy Driver Installer is a handy tool in the UEFI that installs
the LAN driver to your system via an USB storage device, then downloads and
installs the other required drivers automatically through the internet.
Completely no CD or optical disk drive required!
ASRock XFast RAM fully utilizes the memory space that cannot be used under
Windows 32-bit operating systems. It shortens the loading time of
previously visited websites, making web surfing faster than ever. And it also
boosts the speed of Adobe Photoshop 5 times faster. Another advantage of ASRock
XFast RAM is that it reduces the frequency of accessing your SSDs or HDDs in
order to extend their lifespan.
