ASRock send out word that all of its Z97 and H97 based motherboards will support Intel's upcoming 5th generation Core processors (Broadwell) after a BIOS update:
Tired of that same old boring computing rig that has been sitting lifelessly on the desk? Well, a system upgrade might not be a bad idea right now, especially when Intel® is releasing their latest 5th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors. Besides, if you already own an ASRock Z97 or H97 chipset motherboard by any chance, then they're actually ready to support these new processors by a fast and painless BIOS upgrade through the ASRock APP Shop software.
The most noticeable differences between the 4th and 5th generation is that the 5th generation Intel® Core™ processors provide superior performance with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 and Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology. Moreover, these new processors offer enhanced integrated Intel® HD Graphics for stunning visuals and significantly better 3D performance. No matter whether your plan is to play 4K Ultra HD videos or simply just to run the latest games, these 5th generation Intel® Core™ processors are going to bring your screen to life!
