Asrock Z97E-ITX/AC

Premium Alloy Choke.

The new generation alloy chokes effectively increase up to 90% saturation current and feature a highly magnetic and heat resistant design, making the motherboard more efficient, stable and reliable.

Dual-Stack MOSFET for CPU Power.

Dual-Stack MOSFET DSM is another innovative MOSFETs design by ASRock. The silicon die area is increased by stacking two dies into one MOSFET. The larger the die area, the lower Rdson. Compared to traditional discrete MOSFET, DSM with larger die area provides extreme lower Rdson 1.2 mO, so the power supply for the CPU Vcore is more efficient.

NexFET MOSFET for Memory Power.

The next generation NexFET MOSFETs control the power supply to DRAM slots more efficiently. They provide lower RDSon 2.9 mO, delivering higher efficiency and lower temperature.

12K Platinum Caps.

Supreme 12K platinum capacitors with lifespans of at least 12,000 hours. Compared to other counterparts on high-end motherboards that merely have lifespans of around 10,000 hours, these platinum capacitors have 20% longer lifespans and provide more stability and reliability.

Sapphire Black PCB.

ASRock does not overlook any details, even those tiny ones. With pure black PCB appearance, the new Sapphire Black PCB represents rock-solid quality and gives the motherboard a more mysterious touch.
