Pros: - There are just 3 fan headers, but they work with splitters. - Other than adjusting the fan settings (and turning off auto driver update), I didn't change anything in BIOS setup. RAM was detected at its rated speed, and that's fine for a home office PC. - The price was reasonable. - The rear I/O shield is integrated into the board, and putting it in the case easy. No problems with getting plugs to fit. - Updating BIOS from version 1.28 to 2.02 went smoothly with the downloaded ROM in the root directory of a FAT32-formatted 16GB USB thumb drive.

Cons: - Labeling of USB in the UEFI setup program was confusing. I wasn't able to match any strings on the screen with any labels on the board. - My first attempt to install Windows failed after the first reboot. After googling the message from the frowny-face blue screen, I suspected that Windows was attempting to load a driver that caused the system to crash. After I temporarily disable the WIFI module in UEFI setup, the installation proceeded normally. I installed an updated WIFI driver from the Asrock product page and then re-enabled the WIFI module.

Overall Review: - I'd buy this again, and found it to be a good value - If I could change something about the product, I'd make the labels in UEFI setup for the USB ports more clear so as to know which settings affect which ports. - The faulty initial WIFI driver is probably outside Asrock's control.
