ASRock Fatal1ty Z87 Killer Motherboard Review

Rating: 8.0.

Forming the entry-level Z87 board in ASRock's gaming-orientated Fatal1ty series, is the Z87 Killer able to prove itself as a good-value gaming motherboard?

Designed to meet the requirements of gamers, ASRock outfits its Z87 Killer with a number of premium add-on components which it calls Gaming Armor. An audio upgrade is supplied in the form of ASRock's Purity Sound which utilises the Realtek ALC1150 codec.

The high-end Killer E2200 series NIC is used to reduce lag and ping during games. Power components form the remaining features of ASRock's Gaming Armor.

Featuring underlying support for 3-way CrossFire and 2-way SLI, a red and black colour scheme, and premium add-on gaming components, can ASRock's Fatal1ty Z87 Killer deliver the performance that budget-conscious gamers will demand?

• SLI/CrossFireX™ Power Connector.
