ASRock J5040-ITX official




ASRock's long-awaited Gemini Lake Refresh motherboard is finally official and should be available soon (we're hearing early October). The mini-ITX board features the 10W Pentium Silver J5040 and Intel's 4K-ready UHD Graphics 605 (with triple display support). The J5040 is on par with desktop CPUs like the i3-6100T and is a great option for HTPC duties or office work. Although Tremont Celerons and Pentiums are rumored to launch later this year, don't expect Tremont-powered mini-desktops until spring 2021 at the earliest.
