ASRock unveil the sublime looking Extreme9 X79 motherboard

ASRock never fails to disappoint these days when it comes to bringing out high performance motherboards packed full of features. They are now one of the biggest motherboard makers internationally falling behind only to ASUS and Gigabyte and looking at this new board you can see why they are doing so well. In addition to the obviously stunning design the board has there are a tonne of other features:

  • High grade CPU PWM design;
  • Dual EPS 8 Pin CPU power to support overclocking;
  • Complex and actively cooled heatsink design to maintain chipset and VRM stability;
  • 8 DIMM slots supporting Quad Channel;
  • Five PCI-E 3.0 16X lanes;
  • Single PCI-E 2.0 1X slot;
  • ASRock game blaster add on card (audio and network combo card with creative soundcore audio);
  • Eight SATA III ports and Four SATA II ports;
  • 8 USB 3.0 (Four header, four rear panel);
  • USB 2.0, Firewire and Gigabit LAN;
  • A UEFI click BIOS to top everything off.
Judging by the level of features and connectivity we can certainly expect this board to be one of the most expensive LGA 2011 motherboards to hit the market along with the Republic of Gamer boards from ASUS.
