Overview
Building a small AMD Ryzen desktop around this ASRock micro-ATX board gives the CPU its socket, DDR memory slots and a PCI Express slot for a graphics card. Power arrives through the main ATX connector, and storage connects over SATA ports and an M.2 socket.
ASRock covers the essentials for a Ryzen build on a small board: current processor support, a fast PCIe generation and wired Gigabit networking. Expansion is thin, with only a pair of memory slots and no wireless, so upgraders will hit the ceiling early.
Who it's for
Compact Ryzen builds for office work, school or entry gaming suit this board, especially when the PC connects by cable. Builders planning heavy memory expansion or wireless networking should choose a larger board.
Pros and cons
- PCIe 4.0 support
- Supports Ryzen 5000, 4000 and 3000
- Gigabit LAN port
- I/O shield and SATA cables included
- Only two memory slots
- No wireless networking
- M.2 slot count not listed
- Few PCIe slots for expansion
Performance notes
Processor stability under load depends on power delivery, which ASRock builds with high-current chokes for steadier core voltage. Memory running beyond the base clock relies on overclocking, and the actual result depends on the memory kit and processor installed.
