The “Ring” is an object that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Though of unknown origin, Rings can be found everywhere on earth and other places beyond time and space, as well as motherboards!

Beside the motherboard outlook is designed around the Sonic the Hedgehog theme, the ASRock Z790 PG SONIC also features a SONIC-inspired UEFI BIOS interface.
