Impressed

Easy set up.Post first attempt. Runs higher OC with MUCH less voltage than the other A mfr high end.
This is my second ASrock board as of recent and I am impressed.

none

4.5Ghx with 1.2 v other board required 1.35v and of course ran a lot hotter and 4.5 was its limit. Tgought it was the CPU. Nope was the board.
I have become an ASrock believer.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
DOA

Features look good on paper.
Some very nice design touches.
Floppy Disk Drive connector is amusing.

DOA - Putting together a new Ivy Bridge system and liked what I read about this M/B on Tom's Hardware. Put everything together, flipped the switch and nothing happened. P/S lights up, CPU fan turns on, but no POST. Tried 3 different vid outputs. Unplugged all connections except power, cpu, memory and video and still nothing. "Dr Debug" never even lit up let alone output a code. Time to see what Newegg's RMA process is like and hope the replacement works out.

This motherboard seems very hit or miss. Hopefully, the replacement will be as good as the 5 egg reviews say and I can revise this one up a bit.
