Pros: -Cheap
-Lots of slots for upgrades

Cons: No matter what I do this motherboard will not allow me to boot in dual channel memory without crashing so I had to buy a single stick of 8GB rather than using my 2x4 gb sticks. Everything else has worked though, if you're looking for a cheap fm2+ ATX motherboard this is the way to go.

Manufacturer Response:

Pros: The Bios GUI looks and work just fine.
The board works for the most part and was easy to install (it's a motherboard.). I am thinking of buying a better quality one.

Cons: One of the memory slots didn't work when I got the motherboard and it has now fried 1 of my corsair and Lian Li fans. The board was cheap but has cost me 2 dead fans and a memory card I can't use.

Other Thoughts: If the manufacturer spent 10 dollars for each board on better solder and quality control they would have had a way better board.

Pros: It booted Windows a couple times.

Cons: I can't find compatible RAM. I tried a set from the Asrock QVL--won't boot. Doesn't automatically recognize the correct timings, blue-screens when you try to set them to factory. The rest of the QVL list appears to be unavailable or extortionately priced (like 5x the cost of the board). This was a real disappointment.

Other Thoughts: Your odds of ending up in RMA-heck look pretty high with this one. Buy something else.

Test with single memory module, switching another memory module if problem still persist.

Pros: This is a good MOBO for budget or beginners at building pc's. Everything seems to work other that one thing.

Cons: One of the memory slots was dead on arrival really sucks.

Other Thoughts: MOBO's are way to sensitive wish someone could invent a less sensitive board inexpensively. I would not recommend this to anyone just because some components are cheaply made. You can get better boards for cheaper not cool.

Pros: -the cheapest atx amd apu motherboard out there.
-has enough pci-e to run what I need (sound card, intel nic, vid card at pci-e 3.0 and a cheapr raid card0

Cons: I know from reading other mb manufactuer's manuals that I am almost sure you can't use all 3 pci-e 2.0 1x slots with a 4x slot included. Looked all over google to find out the max configuation for pci-e 2.0 slots.
-have to buy a dvi to hdmi cable just in case I need sound from the apu

Other Thoughts: can't wait to get this. WIll also be buying a syba raid card with marvell's 9230 hardware raid chipset and a intel nic for network backup

Pros: Now, I build a PC myself and I was able to figure out most of the problems while building the PC and the solution for them, except for one and that being the USB 3.0 ports are not working. I mean when I plug in my HDD, it doesn't detect it. There is power but no functionality. Other than that its an alright board for a budget.

Cons: Its hard to build since the instructions aren't exactly clear...

Pros: A lot of ports. Good specs.

Cons: Onboard video drivers create blue screens

Other Thoughts: I originally posted a better review, because it seemed a pretty solid mobo on first install. However, I keep getting blue screens on Windows 7 when I try to run Sony Movie Studio or Flash.
It doesn't always happen, and seems most common when I do weird things with user agents. Still, I assume that it's probably the video driver's fault rather than flash's since neither flash nor movie studio should have low-enough level permissions to cause a blue-screen condition.

Causing a BSoD in 2015 is unacceptable.
