Packed with a D-Sub + DVI-D + HDMI combo. Plus the HDMI port supports 4K resolution. Water Pump Header This is not only a standard CPU fan header, but also supports water pumps! This header provides a maximum of 1.5A 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. ELNA Audio Caps Who says high quality audio is only available on high-end motherboards? ASRock applied ELNA audio capacitors on mainstream & entry-level motherboards! Compared with traditional solid caps, the leakage current of ELNA audio caps is merely 3u A. This is the key to reduce noise level significantly & satisfy even the pickiest audiophiles. Solid Capacitor Design ASRock applied solid capacitors on this motherboard. With these solid caps, this motherboard is allowed to perform more stably & ensure longer lifetime. A-Tuning A-Tuning is ASRocks multi purpose software suite with a new interface, more new features & enhanced utilities. 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. Live Update & APP Shop ASRock Live Update & APP Shop is designed for your convenience. We provide various apps & support software for users to download.
