ASRock’s Next-Gen Intel Z890 & AMD X870 Motherboard Lineup Takes Shape

ASRock is gearing up to launch an impressive array of motherboards in the coming weeks, catering to both Intel and AMD enthusiasts. Here’s a sneak peek into what you can expect from their next-gen Intel Z890 and AMD X870 lineup.

Intel Z890 Series

ASRock’s Z890 series is set to offer a plethora of options, with a slight tweak in their naming conventions. The iconic Taichi brand will now include the AQUA and OCF series, both tailored for overclocking aficionados and enthusiasts. The Z890 lineup will feature four Taichi motherboards, each designed to push the boundaries of performance.

Additionally, ASRock is introducing the Nova series, which will come with Wi-Fi support and be available in both ATX and Mini-ITX versions. Other notable mentions in the Z890 lineup include the Steel Legend, LiveMixer, Riptide, and Lightning series. The Lightning series stands out as the only Micro-ATX option in the Z890 family. For those seeking a sleek aesthetic, the PRO RS motherboards will be available in a white color scheme with optional Wi-Fi support.

AMD X870 Series

The AMD X870 lineup is equally exciting, with clear distinctions between high-end and mainstream motherboards. The E-Xtreme variant will be exclusive to the Taichi and Nova series, while the Steel Legend, Riptide, and Pro series will cater to the non-Extreme segment. This strategic segmentation ensures that both enthusiasts and mainstream users have tailored options to choose from.

Launch Timeline

The next-gen AMD motherboards are expected to hit the market next month, while the Intel Z890 series will likely debut alongside the anticipated Core Ultra 200K launch, though the exact date remains unconfirmed.

Stay tuned for more updates as ASRock continues to innovate and expand its motherboard offerings, ensuring there’s something for every PC builder out there.
