Asrock Z890 Pro RS Motherboard - LGA1851 - DDR5 - ATX

ASRock Z890 Pro RS Motherboard - LGA1851 - DDR5 - ATX brings Intel's latest LGA1851 platform to mainstream builders with a robust feature set ideal for high-performance desktops.

This ATX motherboard is built around the Intel Z890 chipset and supports Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) processors using the LGA 1851 (Socket V1), offering compatibility with the latest CPU generation for demanding workloads and modern gaming.

Memory support is extensive: four DIMM slots with dual-channel DDR5-SDRAM capability, unbuffered non-ECC modules up to a combined 256 GB, and official support for very high memory clocks up to 9066 MHz to satisfy overclockers and memory-hungry applications.

Storage options are plentiful, with M.2 and SATA III interfaces. The board supports up to eight storage drives (four SATA III connectors and multiple M.2 slots), and hardware RAID levels 0, 1, 5, and 10 for redundancy or performance arrays, making it suitable for content creators and workstation environments.

I/O and expansion are comprehensive: PCIe lanes include one PCIe x16 (Gen5) slot, two PCIe x4 (Gen4) slots and a PCIe x1 (Gen4) slot to accommodate GPUs, NVMe RAID cards and additional expansion. Rear connectivity features USB 3.2 Gen2x2, USB 3.2 Gen1, multiple USB 2.0 ports, two Thunderbolt ports, HDMI and DisplayPort 1.4 for integrated display output, and a 2.5 Gb Ethernet port driven by the Dragon RTL8125BG controller.

Audio is handled by the Realtek ALC897 codec with 7.1-channel output and front-panel connectors for microphone and headphone support. Cooling and power delivery are well-served with two CPU fan headers, five chassis fan headers, a 24-pin ATX connector, and a 12V power connector. TPM and RGB LED headers add security and personalization options.

Included accessories such as SATA cables, mounting screws and M.2 standoffs let you start assembly right away, and the UEFI AMI BIOS with 256 Mbit memory provides modern firmware control and compatibility with Windows 11 x64. Compliance certifications include CE and FCC.

Use cases: this motherboard is ideal for a high-performance gaming rig with fast DDR5 memory and a Gen5 GPU, a content-creation workstation that needs multiple NVMe drives and RAID support, or a versatile enthusiast system requiring Thunderbolt connectivity and 2.5 Gb networking. Its broad feature set makes it a solid choice for builders seeking balance between cutting-edge components and practical expandability.
