ASUS used to own ASRock, but not anymore. They are two independant companies now.

Besides, ASUS' customer care department is starting to lack these days. Some people are having alot of issues with them.

I might give asrock one more chance they make real quality boards and not many companies can compare with them for the price

What's Up AT ? Good to see you around still

OP, that board looks nice, just have heard so many DOA stories on AsRock but when they work they work well

Best of luck
