i love it when asrock listens to their intrusive thoughts they end up making either the silliest things or the coolest things

Would it have killed them for just two usb-a ports for keyboard and mouse

The elderly folks on here might remember the Abit IT7 MAX, which took the unheard of step of having only USB-A - no Serial, no Parallel, no PS/2.

Those all type c ports would setup a virtual machine for a whole lan event with all needed accessories.

You can always get a usb c connection hub that has 3.1 ports

ALL USB-C is crazy...

I love the All-USB-C designs. I think a fair compromise is for 2x USB-A plugs for keyboard/mouse dongles, and the rest being USB-C.

Full usb-c is bold choice, but i like it. The aqua board is expensive enough that buyers are rich enough to upgrade anything they have that isnt usb-c already. I myself use a docking station which is much more convenient to use with a desktop rather than reaching behind the tower. Plus i already have a type-c keyboard, DAC (audio), microphone, all my game controllers, webcam. Eventually I'll replace mouse and there are always cheap otg adapters for anything that uses usb-a. The more usb-c ports there are, the more accessories we'll get with type-c.

An all USB-C MOBO is an inconvenience I don't want to have to deal with, way too much tech would need upgrading, even now 90% of my tech ends on a USB-A including my mouse and keyboard, for that matter, every wireless Logitech mouse and keyboard would need a dongle for their dongle!, and with using dongles, the question ''what's the point?'' comes to mind.

About time. The industry should ripped this bandaid off years ago. Everything should be C now.

Love asrock. They are my go to for PCB’s. Mobos and gpus. I have a B650M phantom gaming mobo and a 7900 gre challenger edition. Love ‘em!!!!

I hope AsRock is gonna keep being awesome.

its time for TPYE C everything with just 20gb ports min , hopefully just USB4 everything, including internet.

I think my Intel ARC A770 LE and 750 LE designs really kick a$$. So much better than all the other “gaming?” designs.

What's a bit annoying about the CAMM RAM being low profile is that SFF would love that but it's too wide to go on an ITX board

the CAMM2 is VERY interesting if we can get them in 6000+ MT's and 96GB versions (that's what I was looking for in a dual stick DIMM setup so if I can get that in CAMM2 on ITX... then thumbs up all USB-C? Arhh.... not yet... but with atleast 4 USB-A then go all crazy for USB-C... It is about time we get a bigger push to move over to USB-C

I would have to buy so many usb -> usb-c adapters for that motherboard, keyboard, mouse, external hard drives, hotas, racing wheel etc

The biggest problem with a USB-C desktop is that there is a complete lack of USB-C devices to work with desktop. I've been looking for a USB hub for years and can not find anything. I want a USB-C port(removable cable) to connect to the tower, and then 6-10 USB 3.0 A ports. I can find several that have USB 3.0 B, but nothing with C. All of that USB-C hubs on the market are made for laptops and have a 6-12" cable wired to the device.

Are there new ITX board from them on computex?

I Likey ASRock Mobos. I owned one in my build before another MSI.

Could the CAM 2 slots provide cooling solutions for RAM

Did this Aqua also invest all it's skill points into party tricks?

When will cam2 become common in PC and laptops...

Ah yes, the z890 chipset with an LGA 1851 socket. Thanks Steve!

Motherboard looks really cool I like it I'm down with USBC. I hope they make a Ryzen 9000 series version.

5:28 make Thunderbolt more accessible on the lower end motherboards and you can put all the USB-C you want

You know? I don't actually hate what asrock is doing with this. Rn as far as connection ports go the indestry is kind of in a comfortable place so no ones really tries to push anything? So there's no incentive for the accessories brands to start updating their headers. (Tho some do that anyway here and there) so stuff like this can serve to push the standard forward

I would much rather that Aqua board be AM5

Give me the all usb-c mobos *now*!!

AsRock dont mess around, i remember their motherboard that had both AGP and PCIe poorts for GPUs

ASRock had the best customer service i had ever come across till the last time i needed them i currently still need to rma my motherboard cause i get my usb and Wi-Fi /Bluetooth randomly drop out on my x570 Tichi mobo other than that go ASRock don't be ASUS

SHOW ME REECE, WHERE ARE THE DEALS!?

why is the camm2 ram only held with 2 screws on one side... my ocd got me sideways right now lol

cant wait for PSUs using usb c too .

FINALLY, I can't wait to see USB-A to disappear...

Need TRX50 TAICHI!

Asrock has been the only one that never disappointed me, and they are affordable. Asus...

This is what I would imagine an Apple motherboard would look like.

Yay Reese!!

USBC FTW

i heckin love usbc!!!!

reducing latency ? with copper traces ? yeah 2/3 of light speed is quite slow ... more like increasing signal integrity

the only way to kill USB-A is to force it off

Ooh, I like it. USB c is the future. I’ll buy it in 15 years for $200 and put Arch on it! 😂😂😂😂

No, I need six 4TB SSDs for all my video games!

All USB type C is just a pointless hassle to deal with. Two to all four 5 Gbps USB ports could be USB type A. Heck, throw in four USB 2.0 type A ports for slow devices for good measure. Could fit it all in there and still have 6 USB type C, for 10, 20 and 40 Gbps, two per.

why not have both... mouse and keyboard are USB-A. there are many devices that doesn't require USB-C... this is a dumb move have atleast 4x USB-A and then make the others USB-C if you want and there is a reason people connect mouse/keyboard on the back, usually there are usb ports directly connected to the CPU and in theory they are lower letancy... dongle is the only option? but whatever, its only on one mobo

It's about time type A was abandoned.

Can we not copy Apple please?

Humm, usb-c keyboard and mouse? I know, BT.

My next upgrade will be a water cooled mb but thisnis gonna cost 800 to 1200

The universal USB-C is not ideal for some peripherals; for instance, XBOX controllers may not be compatible. I prefer to connect them to the back of my PC to avoid the mess of wires dangling from the front of my case, which can make even a $4500 setup look like trash.

All my peripherals are USB-A and have been for about 20 years. There is zero benefit to switching everything to USB-C, and several drawbacks. Why break compatibility for no gain?

just include a c to a converter thats been how it was for ps2 port, VGA to HDMI etc.

really we should be phasing out usb-a, and b for printers and other decives and just be using c. I cant wait to be in a world were everything is just usb c and this is the first step. At least i havnt seen a micro usb device in a few years, i fucking hated micro usb

Yes, can all things just be C now please

I dont want an apple.

If only they chill a bit on the USB-C and make it something like 8 USB-C + 2 USB-A or 6+4, it would've been perfect.

Type C-only board is very cool. I think it's about time to replace the clunky type A in desktop computers...

ram sticks are old embrace camm2

hdmi and dp needs to be replaced by usbc!!!!!!

Nice video, but you only looked at Intel motherboards. Nobody is buying Intel CPUs anymore.

all C is pretty stupid. need at least two A's on the back for mouse and keyboard.

Who needs USB-A? its terrible compared to Thunderbolt ( and no, this is not a joke )

400 in 20 minutes? UFD needs to do better

What an absolutely terrible design decision. There are far too many peripherals that require USB-A still and dongles are awful. This is one of the primary reasons I don't use Macbooks.

I wonder how many of those intel GPUs will wind up being paper weights on some youtuber's desk? 🤔

ASRock should have leaned into it more, like apple. They should have got rid of the rj45 port and all of the other useful ports so that we would be forced to have a bunch of dongles hanging out the back of the computer

What a stupid board. I don’t own anything USB C except my phone charger cable.

Ya not buying that mess of a usb -c board you cannot even use my keyboard and mouse. Also I don't have 10 dongles hanging everywhere.......think better guys
