ASRock Killer Series adopt the Killer™ E2200 Intelligent Networking Platform, which is built for maximum networking performance for online games and high-quality streaming media. Featuring Advanced Stream Detect™, Killer E2200 automatically detects and accelerates game traffic ahead of other network traffic for smoother, stutter-free in-game performance and the competitive edge. With this exclusive, automatic traffic prioritization, games and real-time chat get priority over low-level system chatter, giving you the lowest latency for game data on the most controllable network hardware available.
Delivering faster networking performance for time-sensitive UDP (User Datagram Protocol) based applications, such as online games and high quality media streaming.
* Test results may vary depending on the setup, internet environment and time.
Use Qualcomm Atheros Killer Network Manager to
classify and prioritize online games, HD video and
high quality audio for better quality and fewer
interruptions in your online experience. See which
applications are hogging bandwidth and tune
performance for each, so they don't interfere with your
online gameplay or other streams. Monitor and
manage the health and performance of your gaming
rig with graphical displays, detailed logging and
complete redesigned user interface.
ASRock’s motherboard is the world’s first and only motherboard that implements a Gen2 x2 M.2 socket. The onboard M.2 socket is a new interface for connecting Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF) solid state drives or other devices with a smaller and more flexible physical specification, together with more advanced features.
Each M.2 card is identical in width (22 mm) and thickness (approximately 3 mm), they differ only in length. ASRock’s M.2 motherboard supports all 42 mm, 60 mm, 80 mm and 110 mm versions, offering flexible options to satisfy users’ various needs.
ASRock’s motherboard supports M.2 SATA3 6.0 Gb/s modules and M.2 PCI Express modules up to Gen2 x2 10 Gb/s, which is 2X faster compared to other M.2 Gen2 x1 solutions that are limited to 5 Gb/s. It pushes your NGFF SSDs to their limits while reducing tons of load time and boosting overall performance.
Based on stringent CrystalDiskMark read tests conducted by our engineers, we have proved that with the new M.2 SSDs our PCIe M.2 interface is 3X faster than the SATA M.2 interface!
Hi-Density Power Connector
Hi-Density Power Connectors can reduce 23% power loss and decrease the power connector's temperature up to 22℃.
15μ Gold Finger
Fatal1ty ASRock Series provides 15μ gold components within the VGA PCIe slot for delivering better anti-oxidation protection than usual.
SLI/CrossFireX Power Connector
The additional four pin SLI/CrossFireX Power Connector provides more juice and stability for graphics cards.
Qualcomm® Atheros® Killer™ LAN
Identify and accelerate traffic to your game, Killer LAN delivers fast networking with a new level of online gaming performance.
Purity Sound™
Purity Sound™ is a combination of several hardware, software audio solutions and technologies that will satisfy even the pickiest audiophiles.
What good is a weapon if you are unable to wield it proficiently? Key Master consists of two major features, Sniper Key and Macro Key. It can enhance your mouse and keyboard with customizable macros, sniper modes, key repeat rates and repeat delay, turning your boring old keyboard and mouse into lethal weapons. Key Master may be prohibited by some games. We suggest disabling Key Master if it violates the game's end user license agreement.
Tired of those repetitive keystrokes? Create your own set of keyboard hotkeys and macros with Macro Key to save the trouble.
Sniper Key
Use Sniper Key to shift the mouse speed when you're in sniper mode, it will greatly sharpen your accuracy.

Purity Sound™ 2 includes 7.1 CH HD audio with Realtek ALC1150 audio codec, 115dB SNR DAC with Differential Amplifier, TI® NE5532 Premium Headset Amplifier, cap less Direct Drive technology, EMI shielding cover, PCB isolate shielding and DTS Connect. As Nichicon audio capacitors are what every audiophile has been longing for on a PC, ASRock applied these high quality capacitors for Purity Sound™ 2.
This frequency response chart was tested with 32 ohm normal headphones. It indicates how traditional audio solution's frequency response drops drastically at low frequencies. Compared to traditional audio solution's (2.0dB) at 20 Hz bass low freq area, Purity Sound™ 2 still maintains its frequency response (0.4dB) and provides better bass with the TI® NE5532 amplifier, improving the bass quality by 20% (1.6dB)!
