Connectors and I/O

In total ASRock equipped the Fatal1ty X99M Killer with ten angled SATA ports. All ports offer 6Gbps bandwidth and they've been wired directly to the X99 PCH. There is also a M.2 x4 slot, which has been connected through four PCI Express 2.0 lanes. Overall there is good storage flexibility with this motherboard and gaming systems, workstations as well as enthusiasts rigs can be equipped with plenty of drives. On this PCB you'll also find practical onboard power- and reset-buttons in the top right corner of the board and there is also a debug display.


Totally you'll find five fan headers on the ASRock Fatal1ty X99M Killer which is enough to provide a well equipped gaming rig, high-end system or also a workstation with fresh air. The fan headers are located around the CPU socket as well as spread over the motherboard. Unfortunately not all headers offer 4 pins which means that you can't regulate fan speeds in BIOS or Windows for alle fans attached to the board.



Looking at the external connectors directly at the back-panel ASRock equipped the Fatal1ty X99M Killer with one PS2 mouse/keyboard connector, four USB 3.0/2.0 ports, four USB 2.0/1.1 ports, one Intel gigabit ethernet port as well as a Killer gigabit ethernet port, an eSATA connector as well as an optical out and an analogue audio panel.
