Purchased 1 of this from lowyat yesterday, price RM630, comparing this board with other asus board at the same price range, asus build quality is better, need to do some testing with this board b4 using it in a project, my boss worry about the build quality of asrock as he said he encounter more defect in asrock board compare to asus/intel.

abit curious, how do you really know the quality is better by just looking at it?

When any pice devices need to use extra power than normal, they should have extra 6/8 pin power input for itself, imagine when 1 pice slot draw 75w and the mobo got 7 pcie x16 slots, plus all other devices on board and USB devices, you might kill the board as so much power pump into the board. You have to know a 6/8 pin power output uses fat cable, and mobo links can't take that.

Don't know what you try to describe here...

bro Riddhy asks if PCIE 3.0 able to provide 75watts as PCIE 2.x does...

Not just looking at it, its the feeling, ie when you plug the CPU heat sink/VGA in, how much the board bend, it bends more compare to asus board perhaps asus uses thicker PCB

and the PCIE3.0, simple answer is i dont know, and sorry that my answer is complex, i said u shouldnt take too much power draw from mobo, when more current flow through a cable, the cable need to be thicker, and mobo isnt designed to transfer huge amount of power, u can fry the board. suppose to pump in additional power direct from PSU not from mobo.

next gen gc will be backward compatible with pcie 2.0. Don't worry too much. Both GC and motherboard manufacturer will make win-win situation to gain more profit.
