CONS
Fatal1ty overload - there's really no getting away from his image, many have had enough of Mr Fat... already.
RAM overclocking can be improved.

Very promising mobo with great design, arguably the best looking red-black colour combo mobo for now. Full of features cramped into a standard sized ATX design is definitely not an easy task. Asrock seems really forward looking with exciting potential for their future mobos. Definitely the choice mobo for those who treasure clear acrylic display or large window casings.
 
Exact same design as far as electronic components as the Extreme6, just more bling...nice board, should clock like a champ
 
I like the gold plated capacitors. They must make it faster, similar to how gold plated hdmi cables sound better. :D

That is a nice looking board. Its got a ton of usb3.0 and sata3 connections.
 
Are Asrock boards any good? I hate to admit it, but I've always been kind of a motherboard snob, thinking just about anything besides and Asus or Gigabyte board is junk :(

(Which I know isn't the truth)
 
I don't hate the look, but the big "F" in the SB heatsink and the writing on the other heatsinks are kinda cheesy... Plus, it's just another company using red and black as their high-end color scheme, it would be nice to see some originality...
 
Am I the only ones that hates the look of this board? ~__~

I don't like the looks of it. Too many "extreme" logo's plastered all over it. Plus, the last thing I want to do while adjusting my UEFI is look at that dudes face.
