Asrock cobble pretty decent boards together nowadays although I’d never consider this board for myself. Wendell has enough money already without have to milk more from some suckers.
I wonder how this board is for long run. Specially for those guys who turn off their PC once in a month.
And I’ve expected a actively cooled south-bridge board as it is top end board from them.
NEVER THOUGHT OF ASROCK AS A OVERCLOCKING MOTHER BOARD COMPARABLE TO ASUS GIGABYTE ECG MSI AND SO ON THIS IS A NICE LOOKING AND BY YOUR SPECS GREAT PROFORMANCE MOTHER BOARD AT A GREAT PRICE WOULD MAKE FOR AN INTERESTING BUILD
