Specifikationer
Selv om vi er den billige afdeling, så er det alligevel ret imponerende hvor meget det er lykkedes ASRock at få bygget ind i deres nye produktserie. En af de ting det altid har irriteret mig grænseløst ved ASRocks produkter er manglen på ordenlige overclocking muligheder, og fraværet af blæserstyring. Begge dele er der rettet op på her, og H55DE3 byder på både ASRock OC tuner, og mulighed for at styre CPU blæseren i 9 trin. Ikke voldsomt avanceret, men stadigvæk en klar forbedring. Som nævnt er der ikke hverken floppy eller IDE kanaler på bundkortet, men bortset fra det kan jeg ikke se nogen grunde til at klage. På lydsiden har ASRock valgt en VIA VT1718S chip, der understøtter 8 kanaler og kan bruges sammen med Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi MB software, der medfølger i en prøve version.
Og så er det værd at bemærke at ASRock har vlagt at bruge alle mulighederne i H55 chipsettet, og således tilbyder både indbygget grafik ved hjælp af Clarkdale 600 serie cpu'erne, og mulighed for op til to ATi PCIe 2.0 grafikkort i Crossfire. Det gør produktet til en meget alsidig platform, hvad enten du er til kontorarbejde eller er hardcore 3D spillefugl.

Features
EuP Ready
EuP, stands for Energy Using Product, was a provision regulated by European Union to define the power consumption for the completed system. According to EuP, the total AC power of the completed system shall be under 1.00W in off mode condition. To meet EuP standard, the EuP ready motherboard and the EuP ready power supply are required. (The EuP ready power supply must meet the standard of 5v standby power efficiency is higher than 50% under 100 mA current consumption.).
