This motherboard has all the features compared to the more high-end and expensive motherboards out there.
The design of this mother board is well though out with enough space between the cpu socket and memory slots to place a generous sized cooler (i am using a hyper 212+ along with G.Skill ripjaws 8GB 1600mhz memory sticks and there is plenty of room to spare).
It supports crossfire/SLI at 8x8 speed which is big plus incase i want to add another card in the future.
Asrock UEFI bios is also very convenient and can be operated by a mouse. All the normal and advanced overclocking settings are there for both casual and die-hard overclocking fan. I myself have plans to overclock my 2500k in the future but at the moment i am well satisfied with its performance.
In the past i have used Asus, MSI and Gigabyte motherbaords but this one tops them all in terms of quality, performance and pricing. Finally i would like to mentions that it supports next generation PCI 3.0 interface and Intel's next IVY bridge CPU lineup.
Highly recommended.

Had no problems using this, worked with all my pc components above. I put the computer together switched it on and it worked. The bios is easy to use which is great for beginners.
I had to unplug my graphics card so it would boot into bios at first as it wouldn't show up on screen and had it connected to VGA on the motherboard. I then installed the Operating system then connected the graphics card back on and then connect my monitor to the graphics card then installed the newest graphics drivers from AMD website.
Easy to use, you virtually just put your computer together, switch it on, configure bios if you wish, install os, Then you're good to go.
The only thing about this motherboard is it is smaller than standard atx so it does not screw in all holes but it screws in suffciently.
For the price this is a really good board and it has a lot of features that you really wouldn't expect... Read more
