Nahimic Audio

 

Whether you are using headphones, a headset, external or internal speakers, via USB, Wi-Fi, analog output or even HDMI, Nahimic Audio offers you the most engaging listening experience, vibrant and rich with details.

 

 

 

 

 

Base Frequency Boost (BFB) Technology

 

Who ever said that only K series CPUs and the Z-family platform are capable of being performed with maximum power. Via ASRock BFB (Boost Frequency Boost) Technology, users may install their non K series CPUs to ASRock’s selected 400 series motherboards and enjoy the base frequency boost with the hidden power of processors immediately.

 

While ASRock BFB breathes life into non K series CPUs, the boost frequency currently still depends on the cooling system applied on your rig.

 

 

 

 

 

Dr. MOS

 

Dr.MOS is the integrated power stage solution which is optimized for synchronous buck-set down voltage applications! Compared to traditional discrete MOSFETs, it intelligently delivers higher current for each phase, thus providing improved thermal result and superior performance.

 

 

 

 

 

Premium 60A Power Choke

 

Compared to traditional chokes, ASRock’s premium 60A power chokes effectively make the saturation current up to three times better, thus providing enhanced and improved Vcore voltage to the motherboard.

 

 

 

 

 

10 Power Phase Design

 

Featuring 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.

 

 

 

 

 

Heat Dissipating PCB Technology

 

Luxurious features extend to the onboard heat dissipating PCB points. Heat Dissipating PCB gives the motherboard a more mysterious touch and this design effectively takes the heat away from PCB and lower down the temperature up to 4.1 degrees!

 

 

 

 

 

2oz Copper PCB

 

2 ounce copper inner layers that provide stable signal traces and power shapes! Delivering lower temperature and higher energy efficiency for overclocking, it's able to support the latest DDR4 memory modules with most extreme memory performance!

 

 

 

 

 

Rule your own Lighting Way - Polychrome RGB

 

ASRock motherboards deliver stunning performance and superior aesthetics to rule your own colorful lighting way! ASRock offers a very comprehensive control to perform the built-in RGB LEDs or the connected LED strips, CPU fans, coolers, chassis and any RGB devices smoothly. Devices can be synchronized across the Polychrome RGB Sync-certified accessories as well.

 

 

 

 

 

Dragon 2.5 Gb/s LAN

 

The intelligent 2.5Gb/s LAN platform is built for maximum networking performance for the demanding requirements of home networking, content creators, online gamers and high-quality streaming media. Boost networking performance up to 2.5X the bandwidth compared to the standard gigabit Ethernet, you’ll enjoy the faster and uncompromised connectivity experience for gaming, file transfers and backups.

 

 

 

 

 

A Solid M.2-Solution Performer

 

Good M.2 SSD protection is important for longevity and stability. ASRock provides a completed M.2 armor solution that makes SSDs to run in a certain low temperature.

 

 

 

 

 

PCI-e Steel Slot

 

The advanced PCI-E Steel Slot packed with solid cover that prevent any signal interference with graphics cards. It also ensures the heavy graphics cards to be well-installed in the PCI-E slot safely.

 

 

 

 

 

Reinforced Steel Slot (PCIe 4.0 Version)

 

The reinforced steel slot comes with the next generation PCI Express 4.0 standard. The various benefits include:

  • Extra anchor points
  • Stronger latch
  • Ensure signal stability
  • Make sure heavy graphics cards to be well-installed.

 

 

 

 

Front USB 3.2 GenI Type-C

 

Front USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-C header delivers up to 5 Gbps data transfer rate and next generation reversible USB design to the front panel of computer case.

 

 

 

 

 

Dual USB 3.1 Gen2 (Type-A + Type-C)

 

This motherboard has a pair of onboard Type-A and Type-C USB 3.1 Gen2 ports built on the rear i/o for supporting next generation USB 3.1 Gen2 devices and to deliver up to 10 Gbps data transfer rates.

 

 

 

 

 

M.2 (Key E) for WiFi

 

Besides the onboard LAN port, users may also choose 802.11ac wireless connections by M.2 (Key E) slot.

 

 

 

 

 

Flexible Integrated I/O Shield

 

Unlike most so called pre-mounted I/O shield that is only decorated with fancy color schemes. We reserve more tolerance space and allow IO shield is adjustable when installing, thus fitting chassis perfectly without any mechanical issue.

 

 

 

 

 

Gold Audio Jacks

 

Everything will wear off in time, but gold looks better! Gold audio jack provides stable sound transmission!

 

 

 

 

 

Water Pump Header

 

This is not only a standard CPU fan header, but also supports water pumps! This header provides a maximum of 2A power for supporting the most popular water pumps. User also can adjust the voltage of water pump to get higher cooling performance with lower noise.
