The Intel N100 processor, based on the Gracemont CPU microarchitecture with the Intel 7 process, features 4 E-cores with a turbo frequency of 3.4 GHz and Intel UHD graphics with 24 EUs. It is suitable for entry-level users and is fully equipped with all three types of the most commonly used ports: D-Sub, DisplayPort, and HDMI. The CPU is covered by a specially designed heatsink that allows for improved heat dissipation. With its extremely quiet, fanless design, this ASRock motherboard provides the quietest computer environment. It supports 10-bit HEVC and VP9 encoding/decoding, hardware-accelerated AV1 decoding, and a maximum resolution of up to 4K x 2K at 60 Hz. USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-C offers a data transfer rate of up to 5 Gbit/s and a reversible next-generation USB design for the back of the computer case. In addition to the integrated LAN port, users can also opt for wireless connections via the M.2 slot (Key E).
