ASRock Launches Sonic the Hedgehog Inspired Motherboard, the Z790 PG SONIC

ASRock Launches Sonic the Hedgehog Inspired Motherboard, the Z790 PG SONIC

ASRock, proudly announces its new ASRock Z790 PG SONIC, an officially licensed motherboard featuring SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog. A 16-bit spinning ring emblazons the rear IO cover, while on the rear side you'll even catch a glimpse of Sonic mid-run. 

The ASRock motherboard is co-launched to celebrate the release of SEGA's new Sonic Frontiers game.

"Designed to bring back epic memories of catching rings in Green Hill Zone, the motherboard echoes Sonic's lightning speed with its fast blue and silver shards and Sonic silhouette, besides the motherboard outlook is designed around the Sonic the Hedgehog theme, the ASRock Z790 PG SONIC also features a SONIC-inspired UEFI BIOS interface", Said Chris Lee, Vice President of ASRock motherboard & gaming monitor business unit.

Hardware That's Gotta Go Fast
The ASRock Z790 PG SONIC features the fastest PCI-Express 5.0 for the latest generation of graphics and add-in cards, plus a Blazing M.2 PCI-Express 5.0 M.2 slot is ready for new, ultra-high speed NVMe SSDs - minimizing load times for gamers!

Killer E3100G 2.5G Ethernet is included, plus a generous array of rear IO USB connectivity, including 20 Gbps USB Type-C and ASRock's patent-pending Lightning Gaming Ports that are optimized for high speed keyboards and mice, minimizing input jitter and click latency. Nahimic Audio, by SteelSeries, ensures powerful and accurate gamer-focused audio is ready for headphones and speakers alike.

All LGA1700 processors can reach their full potential thanks to the 14+1+1 Dr.MOS VRM for CPU core and GT voltages. A generous VRM cooling heatsink, and a 2oz copper PCB underneath provides better thermal performance, even under sustained heavy load.

Wow, very nice looking, I would definitely buy one (I enjoy consoles). But Sonic theme in a PC part may not be well received by “superior” PC gamers. :D

Is the ring a lenticular image? The kind that spins when viewed at different angles? If so, that's pretty dope...

Yeah, it's kind of odd having a SEGA character on PC hardware. Looks cool nevertheless :)

Motherboard should've been white, at least on the front.

Are there any other motherboards out there themed after a franchise, or at least a character? I'm not aware of any.

It`s kinda of silly but i like it anyway.

There have been a few, ocassionaly.

I think Asus released a Neo Evangelion themed MB, but it was an high end version.
