Wow look at that PCB. I don't think I've ever seen one with curves like that.

Anyway is this specific to ASRock 200 series boards, does it work on other 200 series boards, or can it actually work on any PCIe x4+ 3.0 slot?

Yes definitely.... I'd love to know if there is a way to get this bad boy running on another motherboard....
