The ASRock X79 Extreme4 is a high-performance motherboard designed for Intel Core i7 processors, offering robust support for advanced technologies such as Hyper-Threading, Intel Turbo Boost 2.0, and Untied Overclocking. It is built around the Intel X79 chipset, making it ideal for users seeking powerful computing capabilities for tasks like gaming, video editing, and high-end multitasking. The motherboard supports DDR3 memory with speeds up to 2400 MHz (overclocked), providing flexibility for users looking to maximize system performance. With four memory slots and a quad-channel architecture, it can handle up to 32GB of non-ECC, un-buffered memory.
The X79 Extreme4 features an extensive array of expansion options, including three PCIe 3.0 x16 slots (with one running at x8), which support multi-GPU configurations such as NVIDIA Quad SLI or AMD Triple CrossFireX. This makes it a great choice for users who want to push their graphics capabilities to the limit. Additionally, there are two PCIe 2.0 x1 slots and two PCI slots for further expansion possibilities.
Storage connectivity is also well thought out, with a combination of SATA2 and SATA3 ports. The motherboard includes four SATA2 ports and five SATA3 ports, with some supporting RAID configurations like RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10. There is also an eSATA3 port for external storage solutions. The board provides ample connectivity options for peripherals, with 12 USB 2.0 ports (six on the rear panel and six via headers) and four USB 3.0 ports (two on the rear panel and two via headers). This ensures compatibility with a wide range of modern and legacy devices.
Audio and networking features are also well integrated. The motherboard includes audio I/O jacks for high-quality sound output and input, as well as a Coaxial SPDIF Out and an Optical SPDIF Out for digital audio connections. Networking is handled by a Gigabit Ethernet port, ensuring fast and reliable internet connectivity.
Power delivery is handled by a 24-pin main power connector and an 8-pin CPU power connector, ensuring stable power delivery to the system and the CPU under heavy loads.
