Compatibility with Rocket Lake processors
All motherboards with the 500 series chipset are compatible with Rocket Lake and Comet Lake processors. Motherboards with W480, Z490, H470, Q470 chipsets also support Rocket Lake processors, but may require a BIOS update. Boards with other chipsets do not support Rocket Lake processors.
Hi-Fi
The combination of exclusive hardware and software design, including "ground-isolated circuit design", "independent audio power" and "built-in on-board amplifier", with all these hardware features ensures the best sound quality and performance. On the software side, we offer a free "Multi-Channel Calibration" bundling tool that is typically found in high-level sound systems; this feature allows you to automatically detect your location; Thanks to the user-friendly interface, you can easily adjust the volume of each speaker for balanced surround sound. And of course, the built-in amplifier always delivers super powerful sound compared to other motherboards.
HD Audio
Provides high-quality sound with minimal loss of audio fidelity.
Hi-Fi grounding
BIOSTAR Hi-Fi Ground (Golden Line) is a multi-layer PCB interlocking design that isolates analog audio signals from digital sources. The unique PCB layout is perfect for exceptional clarity and high-quality sound.
HDMI 4K2K
The new 4K2K resolution allows you to display high-definition images with four times the resolution of Full HD, the 4K2K display faithfully expresses bright, highly detailed content that fills the entire screen with lifelike images. Connect to computers via a single HDMI cable for displaying 4K2K data.
DisplayPort
DisplayPort is a digital display interface developed by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). The interface is primarily used to connect a video source to a display device such as a computer monitor, although it can also be used to carry audio.
DX12
DirectX 12 introduces the next version of Direct3D, the graphics API at the heart of DirectX. Direct3D is one of the most critical elements of a game or game engine, so we've redesigned it to be faster and more efficient than ever before. Direct3D 12 enables richer scenes, more objects and full use of modern GPU hardware.
