Description:

ASRock is an Asus division well known around the computer market business for its entry level mainboards which are nonetheless well made and are offering a solid performance at a low cost while being even a little overclockable. Well, it looks like ASRock engineers just got tired at working at entry level hardware components and finally announced the launch of a mainboard fully loaded with all the possible options which are typically expected from a high end product.

Featuring a socket AM2, the ASRock AliveNF5SLI-1394 mainboard is compatible with the latest generation of AMD central processing units like the dual core AMD Athlon 64 X2, the Athlon 64 FX, the Athlon 64 and the low end Semprons. The latest ASRock mainboard features a frontside bus of 1000MHz or 2GT/s and it implements a number of innovative Advanced Micro Devices patented technologies like the AMD Live!, Hyper-Transport and the AMD Cool 'n' Quiet technology which allows the scaling of the processor speed according to the workload in order to achieve an optimal running temperature and a low fan noise.

On the memory department the AliveNF5SLI-1394 mainboard is able to house a maximum of 8GB of DDR2 random access memory using a dual channel configuration. The memory is packed in four DIMMs and the mainboard offers support for running frequencies between 533MHz and 800MHz and because of the ASRock patented AM2 Boost technology, the overall performance of the DDR2 memory is enhanced with up to 12.5 percent.
