A well-balanced, full-format ATX motherboard equipped with an LGA 1700 socket and based on the top-level Intel Z790 system logic. It is a member of the Phantom Gaming family, which includes mid-range motherboards with an excellent balance between price, functionality and workmanship. Thanks to the current Intel socket, the LGA 1700 is suitable for building a modern PC based on Intel 12th and 13th generation APUs (codenamed Alder Lake and Raptor Lake).

Designed for seasoned video game fans who are looking for a modern motherboard without the extra premium of 2nd or 3rd order features. Thanks to the use of a powerful 16-phase converter and a high-level element base, it will be the best choice for assembling powerful gaming assemblies with Core i7 class processors and a GeForce RTX 3080 level video card. Belonging to the gaming series is emphasized by the built-in ASRock Polychrome Sync backlight synchronization system, additional connectors for connecting RGB / ARGB lights and free zones for placing a water pump.

The specialized Dragon RTL8125BG LAN controller with a bandwidth of 2.5 Gbps is responsible for processing network traffic. The layout of the ASRock Z790 PG Lightning DDR4 slots is made as follows: 2 video card slots (there is support for Crossfire mode) + 4 M.2 connectors + 4 SATA 3 connectors. Support for PCI-E 4.0 interface ensures full performance of reactive M.2 SSDs , which are most useful in gaming systems, speeding up the loading of textures from the drive to the video card memory. Equipped with four standard DDR4 DIMM sockets with the ability to mount up to 128 GB of RAM with a maximum clock speed of 5333 MHz.
