Digi Power

More Precise, More Efficient
By adopting digital pulse-width modulation (PWM), the ASRock motherboard can provide CPU Vcore voltage more efficiently and smoothly. Compared to analog PWM, digital PWM can optimize the CPU power solution and provide a proper and stable Vcore for the processor.
16+2 CPU Power Phase

The Fatal1ty Series motherboard is designed with a 16+2 Power Phase, featuring sturdy components and completely smooth power delivery to the CPU. The X79 Professional Series offers unmatched overclocking capability and enhanced performance with the lowest temperatures for PC gaming enthusiasts.
Fatal1ty Mouse Port

Fatal1ty Mouse Port is a customizable technology for PC gamers that is a part of F-Stream. After plugging the USB mouse into the Fatal1ty Mouse Port and running F-Stream, gamers can use Fatal1tys personal preferred mouse polling rate at 500 Hz. F-Stream also provides the flexibility for gamers to adjust the mouse polling rate from 125 Hz to 1000 Hz. This is helpful for professional gamers to experience smoother game play and faster response time to the mouse.
Limitation:
1. Some USB mice may not support 1000 Hz mouse polling rate.
2. The Fatal1ty mouse port does not support USB 2.0 mouse.
3. The Fatal1ty mouse port may not support some wireless USB mice.
4. The Fatal1ty mouse port does not support the USB mouse which is connected to the USB hub.
Premium Gold Caps

Top-Class Quality Guaranteed
Premium Gold Caps are luxury capacitors. These 100% Japan-made solid capacitors are sleek, high gloss caps with a premium gold coating representing long life and stable performance.
PCIE 3.0 slots - Support 4-Way SLI, 4-Way CrossFireX

The board comes with 4 x PCI-E 3.0 slots supporting NVIDIA
4-Way SLI and AMD 4-Way CrossFireX. PCI Express 3.0 slots maximize the bandwidth for the next-gen PCI Express 3.0 VGA cards, provide ultimate graphics performance.
Note:
PCI-E 3.0 requires both a supporting CPU and motherboard at the same time. Currently Intel Socket 2011 Sandy Bridge-E Processor doesnt support PCI-E 3.0, but this motherboard is already PCI-E 3.0 hardware ready. It depends on Intel CPU to enable PCI-E 3.0. Please check Intel website for information on future CPU updates and releases.
