The Intel Z370 chipset launch provides a thrilling end to an exciting year of technology breakthroughs for computer enthusiasts. This launch makes it an unprecedented flurry of new desktop platforms this year. Otherwise known as Coffee Lake, these new CPUs add more cores, larger caches, and higher clocks to an already potent foundation. They’re not only Intel’s fastest desktop chips for gaming but also substantially better for content creation and power users who do more with their PCs. And they require new motherboards.

ASRock has a full lineup ready. This was the first manufacturer to show us the Mini-ITX motherboard for Coffee lake-S. ASRock has upgraded its CPU VRM design to provide more power phases than ever.More cores can demand more power when overclocking, and so, with up to twelve power phases, the ASRock power system is designed for maximum overclocking ability and stability. While the spotlight is focused on CPU and graphics performance, less glamorous subsystems are just as important. These new ASRock motherboards feature Hyper DDR4 design to provide outstanding memory overclocking ability – up to an insanely fast DDR4 4333 MHz.
