ASRock releases new Intel motherboard with support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory — The "H610 Combo" features both types of DIMM slots, but you can't mix generations

Is the cure to RAM pricing a motherboard that supports multiple generations? That's what ASRock seems to be betting on with its latest release on the last-gen LGA1700 socket — a new Intel motherboard based on the H610 chipset that fulfils the company's original announcement from three years ago, at last. The "H160M Combo" features support for both DDR4 and DDR5, while being the first consumer offering to do so in dual-channel mode.
