ASRock H170A-X1 - Is it good?

[BZN]

So far i found only this mobo to match my requirements for 100$

 

Is it good? What are its performances, what does this forum think of it?

 

Also will this memory http://www.pcgarage.ro/memorii/corsair/vengeance-lpx-black-16gb-ddr4-2133mhz-cl13-dual-channel-kit/ do the job?

Did you search for H110 and B150 mobos as well? I bet one of those would be cheaper and have all the features you'd need.

 

But outside of that, it's an okay board. Nothing special about it, either for the better or for the worse. So long as it has DDR4, there really isn't much difference between the various H and B boards.

Well i didn't particularly look for the chipset when searching the board. This turned out to be the cheapest to match my requirements. Can go a bit higher if you've got any suggestions. As far as i know H110 offers less (i think)

Usually offers less, yes, but costs considerably less in return.

If that's the cheapest one that has everything you want... well, I suppose that's your board then.
