ASRock_AM1_Motherboards

There is one thing no one can deny about the AMD APUs, especially the latest release of Kaveri, and that is the great SFF gaming performance. When you need to squeeze as much gaming power as possible from something the size of a console, then AMD is the way to go. ASRock has matched this with 3 great new boards for the mini-ITX and Micro-ATX segments in the AM1H-ITX, AM1B-ITX and AM1B-M.

These new boards are more than just a AM1 socket refresh of previous boards by ASRock. They come with their own set of new goodies too, like High Density Glass Fabric PCB technology, which allows for better protection against shorts, voltage spikes, and static electricity discharges. THe AM1H-ITX offers the most to DIY users with dual power input options. You can use a 12V DC adapter via port on the rear I/O or standard 24-pin connector.

The AM1H-ITX is the perfect board for a SFF build with WiFi, 4 USB 3.0 ports, 4 graphics outputs, and more. The AM1B-ITX is great for legacy builds with a full parallel port. And the AM1B-M is great for those who need the additional 1x PCIe port for expandability. Find more information below.
