Please read the name of this motherboard on their site http://www.asrock.com/mb/intel/h81%20pro%20btc/

 

I just can't handle them anymore.

It was more of the surprise seeing it there on their website more than anything.

ASRock is complete garbage. Now even their advertising is going down the toilet... So tacky and tasteless. Pathetic.

Ehh, I don't have personal experience with their products so I will reserve judgement.

Their motherboard has been serving me fine for past 2-3 years.

Same here, been doing my personal rigs using them and even for some friends and you really cannot go wrong with them, they don't cut costs on quality to save some $ like MSI and even lately Gigabyte in some models, they manage to have excellent pricing because of their marketing spending is perhaps 1/10th of the big guys... OK yea, maybe they could spend a tiny bit and we wouldn't see this kind of stuff in their website :D

I have the Z87 Extreme6 and it's been really good for me the last 3+ years.

Just saying to everyone berating ASRock, pretty much all motherboards are made in the same factory complex by the same enslaved Chinese people. The only difference between the manufacturers is the design and branding.

I like the fact that if you need something insane and impractical but damn cool like x99 on itx or 21sata ports for insane consumer home raids you can find an asrock that will do it.

Not even the design they used to be a sister company to Asus I bet they still share designs

I've never really cared for ASRock boards on an aesthetic stand point, like OP (@DeadEyePsycho) I've never used their products so I don't have any thing against them.

I just got like 7 notification from you in the past 3 minutes lol.

I haven't had any issues with their mobos so far.

Well. Seeing as my Asrock mobo "kinda" survived a whole coat of paint, I give them the gold star.

I find it sad when a company does something like this...

Their marketing has always been extremely cringy.

I mean look at their videos ...

I've never had a problem with their products though and I don't really care about marketing.

That's literally got to be the worst hardware related advert ever made. Such an epic fail.
