Pros: I was wary of trying ASRock brand, I've never used any of their products, but I'm impressed. Lots of options and it all works as expected. No current driver or BIOS issues on Windows 7. Overclocks very easily. Best board I ever bought for under $100. I went with A10-5800k, Hyper 212 EVO, and 1866 8GB Crucial Ballistix kit.

Cons: I can't recommend installing any of the software, outside of the drivers, but it's there if you find it useful.

Overall Review: Make sure you have, and properly use, ESD wrist strap assembling motherboards. No one wants a preventable RMA.

Comments: Sufficiently cools a Prescott 3ghz but is by no means great. Look into a Zalman 7000A copper for a nice temperature <font>d</font>rop.

Pros: Cheap yet quality cable. No issues linking computer to HDTV @ 1080p 60hz.

Cons: None at this time.

Pros: Excellent processor and integrated graphics. Noticeably faster than my Core 2 Duo + 8600 GTS. No problems with older games like World of Warcraft, Half-life 2, Unreal T3, Company of Heroes, but the integrated graphic does stutter on newer titles such as Skyrim with high quality which I expected...just saying. Plenty of room to overclock combined with ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6, although I haven't found the need to do so yet. Highly recommend Hyper 212 EVO heatsink with this, if you can fit it, for amazingly low temperatures.

Cons: Stock heatsink/fan is garbage.

Pros: Quiet, I haven't heard it once over (throttled) 120mm fans. No bad sectors. Lots of space. Fast as a 7200 mechanical hard drive can be. And still going strong.

Cons: Always the risk of DOA during shipping with a mechanical hard drive.

Overall Review: I received drive with firmware version CC82.

Pros: Easy enough to install on ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6 with A10-5800K. I've never seen temperatures so low on a fan cooler, especially with a 100w cpu. Max load of 54c on integrated GPU after hours of gaming. Tjunction has never gone over 32c (CoreTemp) or 45c on motherboard sensor. Plenty of room to overclock. It mounted very tightly. I'm impressed, if it fits in your case, highly recommended!

Cons: Very large. Make sure it fits.

Overall Review: Not your typical heatsink base. I spread the provided thermal paste in a thin line halfway down each tube partition. Gave it a twist after mounting. Seems to have worked well.
