Leading global motherboard manufacturer ASRock proudly announces its new series of AMD A620 motherboards. The latest AMD A620 platform aims at a more budget-friendly market while still offering a wide variety of features, such as DDR5 memory support, multiple M.2 slots for NVMe storage devices, and WiFi 6E for daily tasks as well as gaming.

To maximize the affordability of the AMD A620 platform, ASRock offers four models, including both 4 and 2 DIMMs motherboard layout options. If 4 DDR5 memory is a must for your next build, the A620M Pro RS will definitely be the number one choice. It offers a luxurious amount of USBs including Type-C for both front and rear panels, 3 M.2 Key-M onboard and 2 of which support PCIe Gen 4 x4 to give multiple storage options. With a 6-layer PCB and Dr.MOS for Vcore design, A620M Pro RS can fully support the latest AMD Ryzen 7000 Series Processors. A620M Pro RS also comes with a WiFi 6E variant the A620M Pro RS WiFi, an all-rounder choice for wireless environments.



For 2-DIMMs AM5 users, the ASRock A620M-HDV/M.2+ or A620M-HDV/M.2 is definitely the motherboard for you. Although both motherboards are targeted on the budget-friendly side of the spectrum, they still packed with all the exciting features such as 2 M.2 Key-M for NVMe SSD, USB 3.2 Type-C to support all those modern portable devices, and Dr.MOS design for Vcore to give better power and thermal efficiency for daily tasks, and with up to 6+1+1 power phases on the A620M-HDV/M.2+, light gaming is perfectly achievable with AMD Ryzen 7000X3D series processors with AMD 3D V-Cache Technology.

Edit: saw prices of Shitsus boards(typically overpriced) and if Asrock, and Gigabyte also price their offerings similarly then I hope these A620 boards also fail at launch.

The A620M Pro RS seems good but it doesn't have any slots for expansion cards, which is a rare and an unfortunate choice, since you cannot have 'optical out' at all via a dedicated sound card or anything else you might wish to add when buying an mATX board. Creating a larger board than ITX without any expansion slots kind of defeats the purpose.
I still like this board though, Asrock is truly trying to push the price down.

Why would you say that? M-ATX is if you want a "cheap" board as manufacturers can leave out some components. M-ITX requires manufacturers to spend on having an adequate featureset, you're paying to make it small. I'd argue what doing here is smart as they can space things out and bring down cost. Unlikely they can use less layers though.

"Cheap is as cheap does"....

In other words, they gotzta be cuttin some corners somewhere to get the prices down, and usually, the main choppin starts at the pcb quality and then goes over to the VRM's....

If you're AsSRock, none, cause they will just redefine overheated/fried components as the new industry standard.....hehehe
