Dual Intel® LAN
Users are able to connect two LAN cables to this motherboard's rear I/O. Dual
LAN with Teaming function enabled on this motherboard allows two single
connections to act as one single connection for twice the transmission
bandwidth, making data transmission more effective.
Dual USB 3.1 (Type-A + Type-C)
This motherboard has a pair of onboard Type-A and Type-C USB 3.1 ports built
on the rear i/o for supporting next generation USB 3.1 devices and to deliver
up to 10 Gbps data transfer rates.
Dual Ultra M.2 For SSD
Two of the world's fastest PCIe Gen3 x4 Ultra M.2 slots that deliver up to
32Gb/s transfer speed, it also supports SATA3 6Gb/s M.2 modules.
Intel® Optane™ Memory Ready
Supports Intel® Optane™ memory technology and Intel® Optane™ storage
technology that redenes a new standard of high performance and
responsiveness.
ASRock Intel® 4-Layer Memory POOL Technology
POOL (Planes On Outer Layers) technology allows 4-layer boards to utilize
stripline routing instead of micro-strip routing, making motherboard having
better electrical properties and performance.
Creative Sound Blaster™ Cinema 3
Sound Blaster™ Cinema 3 is the latest software that is designed with SBX Pro
Studio to deliver a holistic audio experience. Whether you're gaming or watching
a movie, Reality 3D technology lets you enable 5.1/7.1 surround sound for an
additional layer of transience to your listening experience even with just a
pair of headphones or stereo speakers.
User friendly UEFI & EZ Mode
ASRock UEFI is the smoothest, slickest mouse-controlled BIOS has been improved
to make it even more friendly. Advanced mode provides a more comprehensive
environment that is designed for overclockers and power users who want maximum
control over their PC's hardware. 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.
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.
