Well-known mainboard manufacturer AsRock is getting ready to launch its own overclockingoriented Z77 motherboard, featuring the 1155 processor socket. The motherboard was displayed at Computex earlier this year and many thought that it was only a concept as AsRock has a certain market segment it addresses.Years ago, the world’s largest motherboard manufacturer, Taiwanese company ASUS has decided not to associate its brand with low-end products and thus founded AsRock to take care of that market segment.
Thanks to ASUS’ good channel contacts, market clout and influence, AsRock did very good and quickly achieved high sales and has eventually spun-off as an independent company.
