Following a leak seen back in September, ASRock has now officially announced the launch of its new ASRock Z790 PG SONIC, an officially licensed Intel motherboard featuring SEGA’s Sonic the Hedgehog. A 16-bit spinning ring emblazons the rear IO cover, while on the rear side you’ll even catch a glimpse of Sonic mid-run. The ASRock motherboard is co-launched to celebrate the release of SEGA’s new Sonic Frontiers game.
