Overall Review: I like using the AM5 Secure Socket CPU retention solutions for my AM5 builds. No benefit in cooling with Air coolers, but it just seems like a more robust solution over the stock retention mechanism .. personal preference I suppose I was surprised to see that you could install 3 x M.2 NVMe SSD's on this board. I didn't look at it close enough when purchasing and so was a pleasant surprise,. I finally upgraded my wife from AM4 to an AM5 platform .. though she didn't need it. Ryzen 5 7600 w/Deepcool AK500 ASRock B650M Pro RS 2x16GB T-Force XMP 5600 CAS36 1.2v Hynix RAM Intel ARC A750 3xM.2 NVMe drives (all different) 1x1TB SATA SSD Fractal ION+ 760P 80+ Platinum PSU CyberPower 1500va UPS 2x22" 1080p 75hz 1ms monitors I updated the BIOS first thing to latest available Used her previous Win11 Pro install and just cleaned up Device Manager (show hidden devices) by removing all greyed out entries in every drop down list Installed latest AM5 chipset drivers from ASRock's site (they were newer than what is available on AMD.com website Zero issues ..running great. Snappier than her previous 5900x w/4x16GB 3200 CAS16 DDR 4

Pros: -Fairly easy to install -Looks good with my other RGB fans/memory ..etc

Cons: I was dissapointed with its cooling performance.

Overall Review: It didn't perform any better than my Lepa brand 240mm AIO with temps hitting 100c on my stock Ryzen 3700x under full load with gaming hitting 81c averaging in high 60's low 70's. I was shocked. I switched to a Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4 CPU Air Cooler with a push/pull configuration and under full load I'll hit 81c now and gaming I might hit 70c with averages in high 50's, low 60's. If you are running Ryzen 3's or i3 Intel chips .. this cooler might be alright for yuh I suppose. It should of been more than adequate to cool a 65w 3700x on an ASRock Master SLI/ac with lots of case fans in an ATX case with good air flow .. but I guess not.

Overall Review: I was running an ASRock SL-1000G for over a year now and it has been great powering my 9800X3D/B650E Taichi Lite, 9070XT Taichi I am doing a build and gave my ASRock Steel Legend PSU to my daughter and grabbed this PG-1000G for my rig. It gets an A+ rating compared to the SL-1000G's A rating so I'm sure this PSU will give me many years of service

Overall Review: I was running a Corsair 4000D Airflow. I needed a case for another build I am working on so I bought this one for myself, gave my old Corsair case to my daughter and will be using her Montech X3 Mesh for the build This Antec case also affords me to upgrade to a 360 AIO down the road .. it holds 3 140mm fans up front easily and is one of the best rated cases for airflow on the market. I'm very happy with it and have been wanting to grab one of these for a while now

Overall Review: Bought for my wife's setup now that she is getting more into PC gaming .. her old Intel ARC A750 LE has served her well ... a huge uplift upgrading to the Steel Legend 9060XT 16GB. My wife plays at 1440p with better frame rates than the A750 at 1080p

Overall Review: Bought this monitor for my wife's setup to replace an inexpensive 27" 1080p 75hz curved monitor because my mother needed a needed a "new" monitor so I used that as an excuse to upgrade my wife It's been a great all around monitor .. more vibrant colors than her previous and gaming has been excellent on it .. RDR2 and Helldivers 2 so far
