The launch of the new NOVA series reflects the most incredible burst of energy in the universe, such as supernovas and hypernovas. ASRock NOVA series motherboards embody this spirit to unleash immense power and unlock new levels of performance.

ASRock Phantom Gaming NOVA - New Flagship Gaming Concept
The ASRock Phantom Gaming Z790 NOVA WiFi is a new flagship gaming motherboard featuring a server-grade, low-loss 8-layer PCB with 2 oz copper, 20+1+1 Phase SPS Dr.MOS (90 Amp) VRMs and long-lasting 20K 105°C black capacitors that will truly unlock the full potential of any Intel chip. The optimized board layout maximizes potential DDR5 overclocking to speeds of 8000 MHz and more when paired with a premium DDR5 kit.



Brand new WiFi 7 (802.11be) 2X2 connectivity is available, providing next-generation multi-gigabit throughput that's ideal for low-latency activities like cloud gaming and wireless VR headsets.

A whopping six M.2 PCI-Express NVMe SSD sockets (1X Blazing Gen-5, 5X Hyper Gen-4) are available under toolless mutli-layer aluminium M.2 heatsinks built into the motherboard, ensuring the greatest storage expansion opportunity for the most dedicated PC enthusiasts. An ARGB splitter cable and graphics card holder are also bundled in the package, for secure and adjustable installation.

The ASRock CPU Indicator is built directly into the BIOS and is available to use with K-series Intel 12th, 13th, and 14th Generation Core processors. This quality analysis tool rates your CPU instantly by assigning points based on its performance and capabilities, helping users optimize overclocking settings for enhanced performance.

ASRock Phantom Gaming Z790 Riptide WiFi
Introducing the new Phantom Gaming mainstream motherboard that blends unparalleled gaming power and features, for incredible immersive action. Built using 16+1+1 Phase SPS Dr.MOS (90 Amp) VRMs and long-lasting capacitors on an 8-layer low-loss PCB, it can provide maximum performance to any Intel LGA1700 CPU. Performance enthusiasts can take DDR5 speeds to new extremes, unlocking the full memory potential of K-series processors.

Five M.2 PCI-Express NVMe SSD sockets (1X Blazing Gen-5, 4X Hyper Gen-4) are available, ensuring supreme storage speeds and incredible expansion potential.

I have become a little lost with today's motherboard segmentation.

Can yall just go back to the Extreme and OC Formula series?
Extreme with a number afterwards was so much easier than meaningless names.

6 M.2 slots and yet no mention of a 10gbps ethernet port? What's the point? Why do I have to keep wasting PCIe slots on 10gb NICs?

They still have the Extreme series, but I miss the oc-formulas, which seem to be forgoten.
I'm guessing was a very small niche market.

I haven't seen an extreme board in ages. You sure about that?
They have one dual dimm slot board but it's for watercooling, called the Aqua or some crap and it was Z690.
The last OCF was Z590.
