I would consider asrock to be a more value oriented brand giving us better value without compromising on the products and that's exactly what we saw today they were these two new motherboards so let's talk about them now Hager canucks is at another fantastic Computex show all thanks to Nvidia fantex and cix and MSI so the first one is the x99 pro gaming fatality part of the gaming series a lovely color combination not too much bling just a nice dark red in their sport for Broadwell ECP use dual intel Gigabit LAN ports we have ke Wi-Fi module dual m dot u gen 3 v 4 slots for potentially great configuration if you're going that route 3-way SLI and crossfire with the first two slots being spaced out which are also metal plated for protection that seems to be the trend these days however no metal shielding or metal casing around the DIMM slots nor the EM that you like we've seen on past motherboards perhaps that could be a cost-cutting solution and I don't find it the cool thing about overclocking abilities this one features 12 faced power v core design versus 8 on competing motherboards let's say competing motherboards have eat we have new audio software which is the Sound Blaster cinema 3 and a water pump header support so in case you're deciding to water cool this one a one of the four pin headers there is powerful enough to support a pump this board will be priced at $259 which I would say is competitive and we have this slightly cheaper x99 Taichi which is priced at $219 so it features all the same things like dual MDOT twos 3-way crossfire sli 12 phase power v core design new audio software and it's based off this martial art design and because they want to try to balance between price and specifications we still have dual lands and steel on those PCI brackets so the direction that as Arrakis taking here is clearly towards cutting down some of the features that a lot of other manufacturers are offering some you're cutting out the bling not everybody likes that and it's a nice option let's say if you have LED lighting but if you will end up turning it off anyway it's a nice cost-cutting solution but we're here coming from the azrog booth I'm Dimitri with our Canucks and we'll see you in the next video
