Review-ASRock P67 Fatal1ty Performance: Solusi Motherboard Ekonomis ala Fatal1ty
Beberapa waktu lalu, Jagat Review menerima ASRock P67 Fatal1ty Professional, motherboard khusus gamer yang dilengkapi dengan berbagai macam feature menarik. Produk tersebut cukup menggiurkan, namun harganya mungkin masih terasa mahal bagi beberapa orang, terutama yang tidak terlalu membutuhkan beberapa fungsionalitas tertentu, seperti SLI/ Crossfire misalnya. Nah, ASRock juga memiliki versi lebih terjangkau dari motherboard ini, yaitu P67 Fatal1ty dengan akhiran “Performance”.
Sesuai namanya, ASRock P67 Fatal1ty Performance dikembangkan melalui kerjasama dengan Jonnathan “Fatal1ty” Wendell, gamer professional yang kini bermitra dengan produsen motherboard bersangkutan. Meski tidak selengkap seri “Professional”, motherboard dengan chipset Intel P67 ini tetap datang dengan beragam fungsionalitas ekstra yang menjadi keunggulan seri Fatal1ty.

Kemasan dan Paket Penjualan
ASRock P67 Fatal1ty Performance memiliki desain kemasan yang terlihat sangat mirip dengan “kakak” nya, P67 Fatal1ty seri Professional. Box motherboard ini berwarna merah gelap, dengan foto Jonnathan Wendell berukuran besar yang tercetak di sisi kiri. Bedanya dengan seri Professional, kemasan P67 Fatal1ty Performance hanya berbentuk kotak biasa tanpa jendela transparan yang tampak elegan. Seperti motherboard lain pada umumnya, di bagian belakang tertulis penjelasan-penjelasan singkat mengenai feature produk.
Tak lupa, ASRock turut menyertakan aksesoris-aksesoris tambahan yang terbilang cukup berlimpah untuk motherboard sekelas Fatal1ty Performance. Anda dapat menemukan empat buah kabel SATA, sebuah konektor audio 3,5 mm, backpanel bracket, dan CD berisi bundel software utility. Untuk gamer yang masih menggunakan hardware lawas, ASRock juga menyediakan kabel floppy berikut kabel IDE/ ATA 133. Sayangnya, tak ada bracket frontpanel USB 3.0 seperti yang terdapat pada seri Fatal1ty Professional. Namun, hal tersebut dapat dimengerti. Untuk harga yang lebih terjangkau tentu ada yang harus dikorbankan, bukan?
