- Support for Gen 2 Ryzen out of the box
- Integrated video works great with G series Ryzens
- Lots and lots of overclocking options in the BIOS ... much more than I need but nice to see the options.
- Good board layout (it's ITX so you really don't have much room to mix things up) that fit perfectly into my Silverstone ITX case
- Included manual sucks. It really wasn't even a manual, just printed instructions that only focused on the hardware install piece. It may be a bit of a cost saver for the company, but the trend to make everything online assumes you have access to online content independent of the computer you're trying to build.
- Headers for Power and HD activity LEDs are giving me problems. Power and rest buttons work fine though. Not sure if it's a board issue, bios setting I'm missing some where, or a case issue, but I had the LEDs working before with a previous ASRock motherboard installed. Now, nothing. I'll continue to troubleshoot. It's not a deal breaker though since the rest of the board is performing like a champ.
EDIT (1/15/2019). The headers work fine, it was the case header connectors that were the issue. Bumping the rating to 5 eggs ... this board is a good deal.
- Intially booted up with a spare Western Digital SSD that had Win10 installed. That booted like a champ and Windows recognized all the different hardware without issues. Building this out as a Ubuntu 18 Server, so I plugged in the Ubuntu install usb drive and rebooted. Ubuntu install started up without issue and I was able to format the drive in ext4, and setup all the default parameters needed to get the server up and running. No issues with any of the hardware being detected and appropriate Linux drivers being install. I was a bit wary that this "new" hardware would have some problems with Linux, but the Ubuntu 18 server software had no issues.
- It worked with pretty much no problems after I put in the right CPU
- Not really a pro, but I needed this board to replace a dead one on one of my systems.
- The description and the reviews do not mention at all that this motherboard came with the latest version of the BIOS with support for Ryzen 3000 series CPUs. I understand that the reviews are more or less about the life of the board so they do not have control over that. However, the seller should update its listing to explicitly say that this board supports Ryzen 3000 and only Ryzen 3000. Should the seller update it, I will update my review to 5 eggs.
- Out of the box, this board did not support Summit Ridge, Raven Ridge, or Pinnacle Ridge CPUs. If you are buying this CPU for a Ryzen 1000 or 2000 series chip, don't because it will not work.
- I thought I would have to use my Ryzen 3 2200G to update the BIOS, but that wasn't the case. Could have saved me some time by being more clear on the status of this board.
It is a good product, if it meets your needs. I plan on using it in a server build so I don't need a lot of power and features. I recommend it, but only if you have a Ryzen 3000 series chip.
