Der erste Eindruck, den das Extreme7 Gen3 von ASRock hinterlässt, ist sehr gut. Das Design, welches ASRock mit der Extreme-Serie aus dem Boden gestampft hat, vermag optisch zu überzeugen und ist mit Sicherheit ein Blickfang. Gefallen hat uns auch die...

ASRock, empresa que lleva años en el mercado de los motherboards, nos ofrece esta vez uno de sus últimos motherboards para el chipset Intel Z68 el cual viene con las ultimas tecnologías incluyendo PCI-E 3.0, que nos prepara para la próxima generación...

Si utilizaríamos puntaje del 1 al 10 para calificar le daría un 11, excelente motherboard sumamente confiable y con gran rendimiento tanto en stock como con OC. La estética esta muy cuidada aunque el color del PCB no es de los más bonitos, el negro...

Volvemos a encontrarnos con una placa para socket Intel LGA1155 y chipset Intel Z68. Se trata de una placa para los procesadores Intel Sandy Bridge, pero ya es oficial que los futuros Intel Ivy Bridge serán compatibles con este socket y estas placas,...

Aspecto impresionante ; Kit de extras muy completo ; Soporte real para PCI Express x16 v3.0 ; BIOS UEFI ; Compatibilidad con disipadores para socket LGA775

Algún disipador de CPU puede no entrar en la zona del socket

Así pues, para los usuarios que quieren jugar mínimamente lo ideal para las plataformas Z68 es contar con una VGA dedicada, ya que le podremos sacar el máximo jugo a uno de los procesadores más potentes del mercado. La placa que hemos visto hoy es de...

NZXT Phantom 410 ASRock Extreme3 Gen3 LGA 1155 Intel i5 2500K OC'd to 4.2GHZ 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600 RAM GTX 550 Ti SLI CoolerMaster V8 (slightly noisy but comes with a manual fan speed adjustment) also who really cares

Dr. Debug, Easy to use BIOS. If you need to Overclock your CPU the motherboard basically auto sets your settings for you. Make sure to adjust the DRAM Timing to 1600+ if you have newer ram. The PCI slots have adequate distance between them however...

The motherboard is not a full size ATX as advertised, However it still fits in my NZXT Phantom 410 with no problems...For those of you who dont know what that is, it is a mid tower

The is overall a good stable board

I couldn't find the extreme4 gen3 on newegg so i settled for the extreme 3. My case has some built in headers that this mobo can't use. Still working on the overclock, I'm not comfortable with the boards built in overclock mode because the voltage...

My first build in waaay too many years ; Just knew I was going to have issues ; Nope, this thing was a peice of cake to setup ; Really like the fast POST of this board ; I'm around 20 seconds from power button to desktop ; That's with an "optimised"...

Bloatware on the driver CD like others have mentioned

ASRock, please donate me a sound card.

Was great

Onboard sound died five months later. Not sure if I caused it, but after some research, I'm not the only one with this problem. It can be fixed by buying a sound card

A quick google search shows the issue with certain graphics card being incompatable with this board is common. The forums have rumors about a special bios flash Asrock can email to you that adds support for Radeon cards, but after my personal...

Board was relatively cheap for all the features it advertises

My first board worked great for the first three days then shorted out. RMA'ed it back, and installed the second one they sent me. The new board's PCI-E slots wouldn't work with my graphics card ; I emailed Asrock's technical support based in Taiwan,...

Everything works fine so far except for the NIC

The NIC on here worked fine for internet usage but file and print sharing did not work. I wasted so many hours trying different things only to finally realize it was the hardware itself

Tech also said it'll be another 2 weeks before newegg and other vendors will have the new boards with the updated BIOS in their inventory. I was really looking forward to using this board, but now it seems I'll have to RMA for a Z77 board or another...

Really liked all the features. Best features for the price. When shopping, I was also considering their Z77 boards, but chose this one for the price-to-features

Does NOT yet support Ivy Bridge. after pairing it with my brand new i5-3570K, it gave me the error code 55, which stands for "memory not installed." Tried all 4 sticks one at a time, and in each slot, but no change ; Just got off the phone with ASRock...

none

doa, rma'd it, and bought a asus. dont waste your time just get the asus ; (replaced with) asus p8268-v pro/gen3 ; 2 patriot wildfire 120 gig ssd (raid 0) ; zalman 92mm 2 ball cpu cooler ; 16 gig g.skill ripjaw ; core i5 2500k sandy bridge 3.3gz ;...

As always got my order sooner than expected and had all parts installed in about a half hour.

Good board for price. No issues installing with Intel 510 120gb SSD, Intel I5 2500k and Gskill Sniper Model F3-14900CL9D-8GBSR. Went to ASRock site and confirmed compatibility of RAM and processor prior to purchase ; Board seems to be well built. Built...

None so far

Comes with everything I needed while I was building my system, including the OC software that made my OCing extremely easy. Of course, I did my research and it came with a few other things that made it worth buying (like a powerswitch on the...

Usb port 3.0's only in the back was the only con I could see. Oh, and the main ATX power connector could have been placed a little better as it was difficult for me to actually plug it in. Then again, with the price tag, I really couldn't complain much...
