Onboard Graphics -

With the X370 board ASRock releases an enthusiast class product, I am not calling it high-end as this board has it all, features wise. More than plenty enough features to keep you busy for a while.


T
he Ryzen processor has its own PCIe Gen 3 lanes available for your graphics solution. Ryzen has 24 PCIe 3.0 lanes yet 4 of them are being used to interface with the chipset. Then, depending on the chipset used, it adds gen 2.0 PCIe lanes through the chipset. The X370 Gaming has been fitted with RGB LED Headers, all was kept very subtle and can be configured on/off/animated. The primary graphics slots have metal shielding.

 

  
 

  • 2 x Antenna Ports
  • 1 x PS/2 Mouse/Keyboard Port
  • 1 x Optical SPDIF Out Port
  • 1 x USB 3.1 Type-A Port (10 Gb/s) (Supports ESD Protection)
  • 1 x USB 3.1 Type-C Port (10 Gb/s) (Supports ESD Protection)
  • 6 x USB 3.0 Ports (Supports ESD Protection)
  • 2 x RJ-45 LAN Ports with LED (ACT/LINK LED and SPEED LED)
  • 1 x Clear CMOS Switch
  • HD Audio Jacks: Rear Speaker / Central / Bass / Line in / Front Speaker / Microphone (Gold Audio Jacks)
Nice to see is that AC dual-band WIFI module as well as the 5 Gbps Ethernet jack of course. ASRock also includes the new high bandwidth SLI bridge. The I/O back panel reveals 3.1/2.0 ports. The audio unit has special noise reducing capacitors and shielding on top of that Realtek 1220 chip. You will spot a 10/100/1000/5000 Mbit/s Ethernet jack (red). Included is a PS/2 keyboard/mouse combo port. Included are an optical S/PDIF out port and five gold plated audio jacks. Included with the motherboard are the regulars, including; manuals, driver CDs, SATA cables and a rear I/O plate. 

 

The board has 3 x PCIe 3.0 x16 slots which can be arranged in these slot configurations with graphics cards:

  • 1-way mode - x16 / x0 / x0 
  • 2-way mode - x8 / x8 / x0
  • 3-way mode - x8 / x8 / x4

As you can see, the primary two x16 slots are PCI Express Gen 3.0 configurations, that's plenty for regular graphics card setups up-to 2-way SLI/Crossfire. The motherboard comes with an 8-pin power connector. You'll get four DIMM slots that can be used for up-to 64GB of dual-channel memory. Up-to 3200 MHz supported in OC mode. Please do check compatible Memory and thus the QVL (Qualified Vendors Lists).
