ASRock Confirms Next-Gen CPU Support for DeskMini 110




/ 7 years ago

ASRock

The ASRock DeskMini 110 series introduces the Mini-STX form factor which allows you to install very capable components in a tiny 5″ x 5″ space. Recently, the company confirmed that the H110M-STX mainboard will support Intel’s next-generation processors. To utilise any upcoming Kaby Lake CPUs, simply update the BIOS beyond the P1.40 version. Even though Kaby Lake is unlikely to bring a major performance benefit compared to Skylake, the backwards compatibility should be useful for solutions like the DeskMini 110. Honestly, the ability to offer such a high level of processing power in a small form-factor shouldn’t be underestimated. ASRock’s DeskMini 110 is a wonderful barebones system and perfectly capable of dealing with a wide range of tasks.

I’m expecting the product to be revised with a newer motherboard even though the existing option supports Kaby Lake without any issues. If you’d like to learn more about the DeskMini 110, feel free to check out the manufacturer’s page here.
