ASRock Officially Launches X570 Series Motherboards
ASRock officially announces the launch of the new AMD X570 motherboard series. ASRock's X570 boards get the next generation PCIe 4.0 interface and from the newest, most powerful AM4 processors, including the AMD Ryzen 2000 and 3000 Series. These new boards continue the tradition of trusted ASRock names such as Taichi and Phantom Gaming.
The new design for ASRock's X570 motherboards is a huge step forward. ASRock has combined both aesthetics and functionality to create a board that not only looks fascinating, with its bold angular lines, but performs as good as it looks. The stunning full coverage aluminum heatsink cools and protects the PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSDs as well as the chipset. The neatly designed color LED system is eye-catching but also classy. If you need even more enhanced RGB effects, you can customize your PC with Polychrome SYNC full-color RGB LED lighting, which provides both 3-pin addressable RGB headers and traditional 4-pin RGB LED headers which allow users to connect RGB strips directly to the motherboard and sync their lighting system using the app provided.
ASRock's X570 series brings users the benefits of the next generation PCI Express 4.0 that can offer twice the speed and performance of the older 3rd generation. ASRock's revolutionary, exclusive Steel Slot design with extra anchor points protects signal stability and ensures that heavy graphics cards are safely installed - even if the system is moved. ASRock X570 motherboards include the revolutionary new Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) high-efficiency wireless network interface, giving even faster WiFi connection speeds up to 2.4Gbps and making next generation wireless technology such as MU-MIMO readily available for improved coverage and range.
Rock-solid reliable motherboard design
As well as the stunning design, ASRock's new X570 motherboards feature Dr. MOS, Premium 60A Power Chokes and Nichicon 12K Black Caps. This means that the X570 motherboard not only provides rock solid reliability no matter the task, but also keeps your system stable when overclocking. For extra performance, whether you're gaming or rendering professional content, the beautifully-designed pre-installed I/O shield reserves extra space for fitting tolerances and its position can be adjusted while installing, to make sure it fits the chassis perfectly. Unlike most so-called pre-mounted I/O shields that are only decorated with fancy color schemes, ASRock's easily-adjustable design truly improves the PC building experience and helps prevent installation difficulties or damage.

I have feeling motherboards becoming a fashion show. Ownership pride and accomplishment intensifies.
It's not that someone might need, but rather just want. Same with cars.
Its called marketing.
How else shall they differentiate a product that's exactly the same with only minor differences?
Appearance and few gimmicks on top.

Maybe the customers don't need 5 marginally different mainboards plus 3 really different ones but only 5 mainboards in total... that could actually save production costs, I imagine, as well as marketing.
But you're probably right, somebody's bound to ask "why is there only five mainboards?!"

I just want to thanks ASRock for keep adding a TOSLINK interface in their ITX motherboards. I like to use this for Hi-Fi dac+amp+open headphones (basically to decouple my DAC from the source of sound)
But now they pushed all the motherboards in their website, without the ITX version.
I'm getting the B450 ITX from ASrock (135€), I don't think the new X570 ITX will be less than 200€.
For a 3700X should be fine.

Question: Why the new X570 are updated to AMD AGESA Combo_AM4 PI 1.0.0.3 and the old motherboards to 1.0.0.1?
This is because .3 is an specific variant for X570 or because they are being lazy to update to the latest version?
