ASRock has released two new SoC motherboards featuring the latest Intel N100 processors in both a Micro-ATX and ITX form factor.
ASRock SoC Motherboards
These new motherboards from ASRock utilise the latest Intel N100 SoC processor which features 4 E-Cores with a turbo frequency of up to 3.4 GHz and support Intel UHD graphics up to a 4K60Hz resolution. The chip is passively cooled by an onboard heatsink which allows for a low-noise computing experience for low-power operations. ASRock has provided two options in both an ITX and M-ATX form factor for whichever suits your needs, both being very well equipped.
Features and I/O
Both the N100M and N100DC-ITX are equipped with a plentiful rear I/O with P/S2, USB, COM, LPT as well as Type-C on the N100M. Internally they both are capable of using M.2 for SSD or a WiFi card and they both utilise the same silent cooling system however the ITX board is powered through 19V power situated on the rear I/O as opposed to a standard PSU making it ideal for compact systems.
