You have not been paying a lot of attention if you by now do not know who ASRock is and what they have to offer. Having been around for quite some time as an enthusiast-focused board manufacturer, ASRock has definitely made a name for itself by...

However overall I am pleased with the ASRock Z87E-ITX: it surpassed my high expectations in a few important areas (SATA ports, audio codec, overclock performance, 802.11ac) and is well deserving of a recommended award. Another fan header or two, and perhaps an adjustment of that 8-pin CPU power connector might see it hit a full award.

To assemble a powerful PC you no longer need an oversized desktop chassis. With a mini-ITX motherboard and Intel Haswell processor you can build a powerful yet compact PC capable of running any game. We tested a total of 13 Haswell ITX boards. Even a...

Z87 rules the PC enthusiast market by exposing the Haswell architecture's full feature set. We're particularly interested in mini-ITX-based platforms able to integrate Z87 in a compact form factor. Five boards contend for supremacy of compact computing. ...

ASRock Z87E-ITX left behind an extremely pleasant experience, not only because of the competent work of engineers and designers, but also thanks to the excellent optimized software and a rich set of features. The undoubted benefits of high-quality new...

On 1 June 2013, Intel introduced the fourth generation of its Core processors , also known as Haswell. That day we published a group test of 33 motherboards, but as the prices weren't known at the time, it wasn't possible to draw accurate conclusions...

The Z87E-ITX makes a pretty good case for ditching full-sized ATX motherboards in favor of smaller Mini-ITX models. You don't give up any performance, and there's plenty of expansion capacity onboard: six 6Gbps SATA ports and six USB 3.0 ports should be...

With time quickly approaching the launch of Haswell, leaks on both motherboards and CPU performance are coming out of the woodworks. Similar to our advance Ivy Bridge coverage, here is a current roundup of everything we were allowed to show or is...
