This board is designed to build up the most powerful system and delivers the most demanding technology for users nowadays. Just enjoy next generation computing with ASRock 8-Core CPU Ready motherboard.
Digi Power
More Precise, More Efficient
By adopting digital pulse-width modulation (PWM), the ASRock motherboard can provide CPU Vcore voltage more efficiently and smoothly. Compared to analog PWM, digital PWM can optimize the CPU power solution and provide a proper and stable Vcore for the processor.
C.C.R. (Combo Cooler Retention Module)
The unique combo cooler retention module greatly improves heat dissipation and is backward compatible with AMD previous AM3/AM2+ coolers.
On/Off Play Technology
Even when the system is powered off (in ACPI S5 mode), On/Off Play Technology still allows users to enjoy the great audio experience from the portable audio devices through the PC speaker.
ATI™ CrossFireX Technology
CrossFireX is a brand name for ATI™ Technologies multi-GPU solution. The technology allows a pair of graphics cards to be used in a single computer to improve graphics performance.

ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU) is an all-in-one software to fine-tune different features in an user-friendly interface, which includes Hardware Monitor, Fan Control, Overclocking, OC DNA and IES. In Hardware Monitor, it shows the major readings of your system. In Fan Control, it shows the fan speed and temperature for you to adjust. In Overclocking, you are allowed to adjust the CPU frequency, ratio and some voltages for optimal system performance. In OC DNA, you can save your OC settings as a profile and share with your friends. Your friends then can load the OC profile to their own system to get the same OC settings. In IES (Intelligent Energy Saver), the voltage regulator can reduce the number of output phases to improve efficiency when the CPU cores are idle without sacrificing computing performance.
Turbo UCC One Click for All-in-One Function!
Turbo UCC technology provides you an all-in-one solution to unlock the hidden cpu cores in the CPU, get the amazing system performance boost by auto-overclocking, and running the system in a certainly lower power consumption level as well. When you press "X" when switch on the computer, the system will automatically reboot itself, after that, the system will execute the Turbo UCC function. Enabling Turbo UCC, it will automatically help you to unlock the extra CPU core to enjoy an instant performance boost, and the system performance will boost up by overclocking CPU frequency, memory frequency and all related voltage settings! Different from normal high-energy consumption for overclocking or system upgrading process, ASRock Turbo UCC can allow an energy-saving overclocking or system upgrade computing operation!

Paired this motherboard with an AMD FX-8350 CPU, also applied an Antec Kuhler liquid CPU cooler, works incredible. Also installed 8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM, an ASUS Radeon HD 7870 graphics card (and could easily fit a second) and this system really kicks a**. Plays any game you could imagine on ultra settings and I don't even get a 3 degrees temperature fluctuation when loaded. Steady around 41 degrees.

I don't need to overclock, but I wasn't able to overclock the FX-6100 with this motherboard. No reason to as I can run, all the games I want with this setup and a decent video card.
I'd recommend this if you're looking for a value motherboard and if you don't need to over-clock your CPU
(Read More)
Overall a pretty decent board with apparently some of the Asus technology/knowledge behind it. Will have to see how this holds up in the long term.

Great product, has everything needed, plenty of space for a 2nd graphics card etc. USB 3.0 is great! Only thing is that it has no firewire port which could be useful if you want to buy external sound card for audio processing etc., though you could just buy a PCI firewire card and plug it in the motherboard slots (which it has plenty of). PS: If you're buying it with a mail-in rebate remember the MIR has to be mailed within 10 days of purchase!!! I missed mine :(

Installed all accessories to the board and everything worked fine. This is a good looking MOBO to put in a clear sided case. Decent manuals, even a manual to assist with software set up. Well labelled IO shield.

This mobo was very inexpensive. So, despite its good looks, I was skeptical. But when I plugged everything in and fired it up with no problems, I knew then that it was the best $65 I spent, after taxes and rebate.
