There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Since there are too many black/red builds I really wanted to go black/white. This board is one of the few that has good specs and comes in black/white. It does look good inside of my case.
- 3 M.2 slots. I will be definitely using them
- Wi-Fi built in. I am using it daily and it is stable, no issues. Recently switched to Intel Gb LAN - it works great. Make sure you pick 219v LAN port if dual ports are not needed.
- Plenty of SATA III ports
- Dr. Debug code screen. I find it helpful
- It supports both Skylake and KabyLake (I am using Skylake)
- RAM overclock feature worked right away when I switched XMP profile "ON". It now runs my RAM at its maximum 3000Mhz.
Cons:
- I was really annoyed and frustrated when I was trying to turn it on. It would not boot. It would not even go to BIOS, just pop A2 code and that's it. I tried everything possible: tried another monitor, different HDMI cable, replaced RAM, tried different SATA ports, even returned one board and ordered another one. After spending my whole weekend trying to troubleshoot it, I finally found someone's forum post discussing their new ASRock Z270 SuperCarrier board having the same issue and how he shorted undisclosed pins that say TEST1. I did it and my board actually started booting after I restarted it a few times.
- AURA LED light is really dim. I have a huge video card that actually blocks much of that light, so I just turned it off.
- Intel Ethernet ports did not seem to work, they finally worked later after I installed fresh Intel drivers.
- Windows 7 Pro would not install, even when I used ASRock utility to create a USB boot drive. So I had to dig out my old SATA HDD, copy Windows 7 image to it, connect it to my new computer and install Windows 7. I had to do the same thing for all of the drivers, since I did not have a working CD drive.

Update: Dec 06, 2017
My Wi-Fi was very glitchy at first, updating directly from Intel did nothing. Intel LAN ports also did not work. I tried my luck a few weeks later with a fresh Intel driver update and everything worked fine since then. The board works well, stable and without issues. I had it for about 9 months now, no complaints. Giving it 5 stars again.

All in all this board is perfect for someone who doesn't want to spend extra money on flashy gimmicky higher priced boards
Pros:
Great price, just being made by ASRock is a pro, sturdy, beautiful, very low temperatures, has a PCI slot, easy to use interactive BIOS, amazing Overclocking capabilities, Supports 7th Gen cpu, compatible with the Corsair Hydro H55 liquid cooler, USB C and USB 3.0 Headers
Cons:
Doesn't make coffee
Review: This motherboard is way better than MSI or EVGA. My first comparable motherboard, made by MSI, I bent the CPU pins. My fault, yes, but paying and paying to get it fixed, and the MSI Z170A still doesn't work when stood vertically. If MSI is not going to fix the motherboard properly, then they should not offer a repair service, whose repeated shipping costs due to their errors quickly surpasses the cost of the motherboard itself. So I bought the most expensive instead -- the EVGA motherboard. It worked without problems, but the physical layout was so difficult. The graphics card smashed all the way to the right, the code indicator under the CD, the list goes on and on. Everything was in that difficult to reach location. And don't forget s-l-o-w. Boot took forever. Not that it was any worse than MSI, but UEFI took as estimated 40 seconds in fast boot mode, before getting to the boot strap loader. Why? It was refusing to boot Debian 8, and I was trying everything, and I disconnected power to the graphics card because it was difficult to remove.... and bad idea... Time to get another motherboard. Compare that to ASRock...
ASRock is cheaper than EVGA and/or MSI, plus ASRock is way better. ASRock standard pin ports are more, and positioned much better. Extra support for the PCIE slots which are much easier to deal with, and better looking in general. But this says nothing about what it is like to use. The BIOS (UEFI) is fast... As in lighting fast. To get to UEFI settings requires a quick finger on the keyboard. I never put it into fast boot mode because the instructions say that the UEFI will run so fast that entering the settings again requires a reset of the CMOS. I just clocked it: From CPU power button press, until graphically logged into Debian 8 as root, consumes 19.62 seconds. Yep. ASRock + OS is booted in half the time it takes the others to think about beginning to boot the OS. I always felt it was wrong that motherboards took so long to POST (power on self test (which doesn't test much))... now I know it is.
An ASRock UEFI update is a menu option away. That's right. No more complicated, cross your fingers downloading onto a thumb drive and uploading into BIOS, hoping you did it right -- or else. ASRock made the process automatic. The UEFI connects to the web, downloads and installs the proper update for you. No kidding. I am actually unafraid to update the BIOS, as it is only one menu selection away. As for that BIOS switch EGVA has -- I couldn't get it to work on the other setting... no comfort there.
The only issue I have found is Debian doesn't like ASRock combined with the CD player. If I do not try to boot the Debian 8 live install CD, there is a way around the issue. Advancement always has issues to historical things, and I too hate CDs. On the plus side, ASRock has no problem booting from thumb drive and M.2 cards. It had an issue automatically booting from SATA when mixed with M.2 cards, but it does work, and the last UEFI update got it functioning automatically now. Therefore, I can verify that ASRock will load boot sectors from PCIE M.2 cards, SATA Rotating Platters, SATA SSDs, and USB Thumb Drives. ASRock rocks.

después de darle muchas vueltas al des-instalar el teclado striker 7 de mad catz parece que se soluciono el problema, la placa funciona bien, lo dejo por aquí por si a alguien le ocurre lo mismo que pruebe.
