TAIPEI, Taiwan, July 20, 2011 – Johnathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel knows that gamers have different CPU preferences, so he worked with ASRock engineers to develop a full featured motherboard for the new AMD 990FX chipset, supporting the AM3+ Socket and 8-Core CPUs. AMD is known for cost effective processing and superb over-clocking features, making it a favorite among gamers.

"In addition, ASRock has come up with some new technologies that excited me, such as the XFast LAN™ which can reduce the latency of on-line games, and allows gamers to play at their highest level and Frag the competition!"

"One of the great aspects of the ASRock - Fatal1ty relationship, is that Johnathan is always pushing for new gaming features, giving our engineers suggestions that help them develop applications like XFast LAN™ , F-Stream and the Fatal1ty Mouse port." commented James Lee, VP of ASRock Sales and Marketing. "The 990FX is the fourth board in our line of Fatal1ty gaming motherboards, so we now offer a full range of products for the serious gamers of the world." said James Lee.
