RULE YOUR OWN LIGHTING WAY - POLYCHROME RGB
Steel legend 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.
A SOLID M.2-SOLUTION PERFORMER
Two of the world’s fastest M.2 slots. One delivers up to PCIe Gen3 x4 32Gb/s transfer speed, the other one supports PCIe Gen3 x2 & SATA3 6Gb/s mode.
M.2 Armors
Good M.2 SSD protection is important for longevity and stability. ASRock provides a completed M.2 armor solution on B365 platform that makes SSDs to run in a certain low temperature.
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.
ULTRA STABLE POWER
+5V voltage is transferred from the +12V. Supplying enough current to USB devices without dropping voltage directly from the PSU.
ANTISTATIC SHIELD
Protect mouse/keyboard against static electricity, especially lowering the chances of USB mouse lag or stuttering.
PURE AUDIO QUALITY
USB speaker is suggested to be connected via Ultra USB Power ports to perform the pure current and offer high audio quality without distortion.
2oz Copper
It comes with 2 ounces copper inner layers, using only carefully selected copper materials for PCB layers, delivering lower temperature and higher energy efficiency for overclocking.
PREMIUM 60A POWER CHOKE
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.
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.
