What sets apart Asrock Motherboards from the rest of the pack?
Motherboard Asrock from Asrock is just one of those motherboards that will give you top performance from you chipsets and memory. The company keeps us guessing what they will come up with next and they always seem to add something new to their products. One of their motherboards that stand out uniquely is the Asrock 4Core1600P25-WiFi motherboard. As its name suggests, this motherboard is built around the P35 chipset. Asrock does not seem to go the way that most manufacturers are going; building motherboards around the latest and the hyped chips and chipsets, even with beta hardware components. Asrocks reliability is seen in its goal towards building solid performing motherboards Asrock believes have either nearly or as good performance as the latest chipsets that are coming off the press.
Looking at the motherboard Asrock 4Core1600P35-WiFi, this motherboards supports the LGA 775 Intel processors. These are Core 2 Extreme, Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Duo, Pentium Duo Core and the Celeron that also supports Penryn Quad Core York field and Duo Core Wolfdale processors. With a Front Side Bus with speeds from 800MHz, 1333MHz to 1600MHz, these processors will fit right into the sockets of the motherboard. The motherboard supports the Hyper-threading Technology processors that allow an operating to share the workload using 2 virtual processors, while in reality, there is just one processor. The motherboard Asrock also allows for untied overclocking technology where the user can use the motherboard chipsets and its front side bus to push the processor to maximum speeds beyond the industry-set standards.
The motherboard also comes with a dual channel DDR3 and DDR2 memory slots. Each specification of a motherboard supports a different memory technology. The only limiting factor in the memory supported is the operating system limitation of the actual memory size, usually less than 4GB for systems running Windows XP and Vista. With the motherboard Asrock has come with, the maximum memory that can be supported is 4GB and comes with 4 DIMM slots supporting DDR2 memory technology. Memory speeds supported by the motherboard range from 667, 800 to 1066 non-ECC, un-buffered memory. For DDR2, the maximum memory capacity supported is 8GB.
Other features include a wireless LAN; WiFi 802.11g module and supporting software access point and station modes. Other additions include a CPU Temperature sensing module, a CPU Fan Tachometer and voltage monitoring. A new motherboard Asrock comes up with is usually unique, high performing and lives long after its contemporaries have been replaced. Asrock motherboards have redefined motherboards in ways that other companies can learn from.
