Just what I am looking for in a motherboard that can be used in the future

- 5gb LAN - Dual 8 pin CPU power - Supplemental 8 pin PCIe power - Easy GPU latch - Tool-less m.2 installation - All fan headers are 2 amp, pump header is 3 amp

Affordable price Excellent workmanship Stable and easy-to-use BIOS



Easy bios setup Has rgb lighting Great price Looks sexy

Fast deliveries, All the parts I bought fit well.


- No crazy RGB (may be a plus for some, a con for others) Though, it even has RGB connections on the board. - Several connections for front panel I/O, USB, and fans!


Wifi Built in


ALERT! It's 2025 already, and this motherboard will not recognize a GPT-partitioned device as bootable! Once I figured out why I didn't seem to have any bootable drives, I formatted and partitioned my M2 SSD with a MS-DOS partition table, and it was good to go. I bought a pair of 24 GB G.Skill Trident DDR5 DIMMs that are listed on the ASROCK QVL. The CPU is an Intel Core Ultra 7 265KF. I learned that my nice legacy heatsink was incompatible with the heatsink footprint (the 4 holes) on a LGA 1851, so I bought a Noctua NH-D9L and it works great. CPU temp with air cooling is 32-35C. I;ve been a pretty reliable Asus MB user over the years, but this ASROCK unit is getting the job done for me and I have zero regrets for this decision.

The rgb on the motherboard looks really good the pcie button makes installing larger cards such as the 5090 much easier to do

Came from Maximus XII Z490, This board is faster somewhat Running 10850K on air, DDR4 G Skill 4266 32GB C17 (2x16) , TEAMGROUP T-Force CARDEA II 1TB NVME Runs cool and Fast as hell without any overclock yet other than xmp on the ram boosts to 5.3 on 2 cores and rocks all of them at 4.8 consistent max temps 74c adding a second m.2 turns off a sata port and not the pcie slots

Packaging was very good! Cushioned and protected well. Super happy with the expandability of the board. No bent pins. Works perfect.



Great price, lots of specs. It has everything you need for a nice custom build. White color (ICE) version is sweet and clean.
