Pros: Significantly lower ping than on-board Ethernet controller. Consistent firmware and software updates which further improve the product.

Cons: None that I can think of.

Overall Review: I've bought quite a few things from newegg and this is the only product i've bothered to do a review for. It's made PC gaming in the middle of Iowa possible where I would usually have unplayable pings.

Pros: Has every bell and whistle you could want in a mATX form factor.

Cons: Don't upgrade to BIOS v1.6 if you plan to overclock your CPU. Ever since I upgraded, any attempt to overclock the CPU results in the UEFI interface freezing. I'd be okay with this if downgrading BIOS versions was simple, but it seems like asrock doesn't let you do so. Eariler versions than the current bios do not show up in the instant flash screen.

Overall Review: Would be 5 stars if I could overclock my CPU with the newest BIOS. Would be 4 stars if I could downgrade my BIOS version.

Pros: Works

Cons: make sure if you're using an m.2 that it's pci and not sata. learned the hard way sata isn't compatible with this board.

Pros: I'm watching a standard DVD at the moment and it looks like it's HD. The player works just fine and is very responsive

Cons: The player didn't play a DVD that plays perfectly well on my XBOX.

Overall Review: great value
