Features
| PCI-Express 3.0 | The ASRock Extreme7 Gen3 already has PCI-Express 3.0 Support onboard. Therefore from this point of view the board is ready for Intels upcoming Ivy Bridge. Sandy Bridge doesn't support PCI-e 3.0. You'll have to use PCI-Express 2.0 in this case. |
| Digital Power Design | The ASRock Extreme 7 comes with a digital power design onboard. This enables a more efficient current supply as well as a minimum of electromagnetic radiation. |
| XFast Charger | XFast Charger allows you to charge your mobile devices directly from the USB port. Devices can also be charged when the computer itself isn't on. |
| XFast LAN | With this feature ASRock give a network management tool to the customer that comes with very useful functionality. You can for example manage traffic shaping, packet priorization and there is also the possibility of real time data analysis. |
