Pros: This board is cool and silent, which is great for a computer that needs to be on 24/7 and is in a bedroom. I thought it was going to be a little slow or sluggish, but it really is not. I’m mainly using it to capture video from IP security cameras and as a mini file server. 1080p video playback is flawless. Streaming and file transfers work great. 4GB Ram, SSD for Win 8.1 and 2 4TB HD. Hope to be getting another one soon to use for everyday tasks like surfing and office. The last ASRock motherboard lasted a long time, hope this one does too.

Cons: The only thing I can think of is I with it had onboard WIFI and a mSATA slot.

Overall Review: None. Board works great.

Pros: As the title stats, this processor is AMAZINGLY FAST!!! - Quad Core + HT - all my programs run better

Cons: - After market Heatsink a liitle hard to get right now

Overall Review: Useing this for my new Gameing/Video Editing Rig. Crysis and Far Cry2 run flawless, and crunching video takes about half the time of my old setup.
