OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
The P43Twins1600 from ASRock is a great choice for an upgrade board. This LGA775 board supports both DDR2 and DDR3 memory so you can use your DDR2 memory to start and when you need more speed then you can switch the memory out for DDR3. The P43 chipset supports processors from the Celeron to the Core 2 Quad and Core 2 Extreme.

The motherboard has everything you would expect. It has 6 SATA ports plus an eSATA port for drives and an ATA133 header for legacy drives. There are 6xUSB ports on the back panel and 2 headers for 4 more ports. There is a 7.1 channel audio system with analog and SPDIF ports.

The motherboard supports overclocking and tuning with Intelligent Overclocking Technologiy and the ASRock OC Tuner. It also has jumper adjustments to ensure stable performance at any speed.

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Cheap, wi-fi connector, ddr2 and ddr3 support
Cons: All USB ports died about a month after getting it. Durring initial setup, it refused to see more then 4GB or ram until I updated the bios. Manufacturer is stonewalling me about the issues.
Other Thoughts: I thought this would be a decent cheap board, but its not. I've only really had issues with it since day one, and the manufacturer refuses to take responsibility. Currently trying to get them to replace it, but no luck so far. Do yourself a favor and avoid ASRock.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Everything I wanted. Nothing I didn't want. SATA II, Vista 64 Home Premium installed without a hitch. Bios updated flawlessly. Provides a nice bit of future proofing for the dual-core to quad-core path.
Cons: None, Nada. Zip.
Other Thoughts: Got all this mostly from NewEgg - for my son (after ordering a pre-built gaming box over the net from some configurator companhy that didn't work and had to be returned).

Configured with Intel 8600 cooled by a Thermaltake CL-P0310 120mm CPU Cooling Fan, 4GB OCZ RAM, EVGA Geforce 280, ThermalTake ToughPower 700 W PSU, Western Digital VelociRaptor 10,000 RPM SATA II drive, LG SATA DVD/CD. All packed into a CoolerMaster Cosmos S case. As mentioned above, Vista 64bit H.P. Plays Crisis 64 at full settings with 32 fps during action, 62 fps during non-action (like running around).

I've built systems in the past, this was an exercise to prove to my nagging wife that ordering from a gaming machine builder company is a waste of time. My order from NewEgg combined with a little local shopping produced a box that had about the same or better specs at an $800 savings. Thanks NewEgg!

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: more than 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Pretty amazing features and performance for the money. Using digital optical audio out, blu ray player and playing RPGs & Shooters with no issues.
Cons: None so far.
Other Thoughts: I've owned this mobo for 13 months in a HTPC. In that time I have run XP32Pro, Vista32Ultimate and now Win764Pro. I have never had a problem with it. I must be one of the lucky few. There are many complaints in this review list and if these reviews were around when I tried to buy the board, I would have run away and looked at other manufacturers. Sounds like ASRock has zero support and that sucks.

I did update to BIOS 1.90 a month or so after I got the board - instant boot is cool when it works right. I have not overcloced, so nothing to report there. I have not tried DDR2 1066 or DDR3 memory - I will try DDR2 1066 soon @ 8GB, so I hope it works!

The rest of the primary configuration:

RAM: G.Skill 2 X 2GB DDR2 800 F2-6400CL5D-4GBPQ
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 (stock cooler)
GPU: GIGABYTE GV-N250OC-1GI GeForce GTS 250 1GB

Pros: Have had a significant amount of time and this mobo has worked great. Used E7200 and E8400 CPUs and both fly. This has been in a LAN Gaming Machine. Also used DDR2 800 Crucial Balistix (4x1GB).
Cons: For the individual below, the screws come with the case! Also, the person that tried DDR2 and DDR3 together...are you kidding me!
Other Thoughts: Time to upgrade but it has been an excellent board.

Pros: Price and options and thats it! I like how you can have two memory type and all the HD outputs loads of USB and a lot of room to expand.
Cons: Then I tried to load XP Pro 64 with nothing but TROUBLE. I had eight gigs of DDR2 ram and two HD's I couldn't get nothing to load it keep giveing me error after error message couldn't load OS with the memory I had and when I only had two gigs of mem it worked fine. then I tried to update the BIOS well good luck doing that I had to send it back to ASRock which was okay then I put the replacement board in and the same thing happened. Just go buy something else that will let you use a 64 bit OS without having to use MEMORY REMAPPING!!!!!!
