  absolutely fantastic motherboard, finished a build in it yesterday with a mate. definitely worth the price premium over much of the asrock rubbish.

    What is wrong with Asrock? I know polychrome is junk but apart from that I have had no issues with Asrock in the past?
    Years ago I actually had a ridiculous amount of issues with Gigabyte and ram compatibility issues but have worked with Gigabyte boards in friends and families PC's since then without a hiccup, just stayed away personally since experiencing issues on my own machine.

    BIOS might not be as pretty but who is using the BIOS much on a B chipset anyway?

      The B560M asrocks cant even run the 11 series at 125w within intels own (loosely defined) specs. The VRM on these Asrock boards is worse than shit.

        UNFKNBLVBL on 07/06/2021 - 14:09

        You are talking HDV specifically? I don't think they are targeted at users using 125w cpu's. You are comparing a $100 motherboard there to a $270 one
        Are the VRM's on the Pro 4 series ok? Seems like more of a fair comparison when talking $150 vs $270

        Not saying buy Asrock over any other brand or don't buy this Gigabyte board, I just don't understand the blanket, Asrock is crap statement, I feel like Asrock is great value for money personally especially if not overclocking

          @UNFKNBLVBL: The HDV is about the worst board on the market. Its flat out false advertising. I understand its a cheap motherboard but it was around the $150 mark until recently if I am not mistaken.

          There is sparse info in terms of reviews for the Gigabyte 560M series let alone the 560I series. But from this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_ZGSXi1deJEXhHZNcm3b…

          You can see the VRM's are really good. But either way the Aorus boards are quality and everything else Gigabyte make is cheap shit.

          The Pro4 has less than average VRM delivery and gets crazy hot (nearly 100 degrees in some reviews) when you set the PL1 and PL2 states to match the 65-125w chips.

          For Asrock the Steel Series is really good in the 560 series but honestly the H570 is the go. Flat out better and more capable VRMS (Sic 654's).

            @initiateit: Defiantly agree with what you just said, just not blanket statements like all Asrock are rubbish (I know it wasn't you that said that)

              lachlantula on 07/06/2021 - 14:49

              @UNFKNBLVBL: i don't mean that all asrock is rubbish, i say 'much of the asrock rubbish' because many of their boards in this price bracket are similar in quality (ie poor).

  Excellent price. I combined the non ax version with a 11400f.

  Really highlights how overpriced ITX components are compared to mATX.

    https://youtu.be/HSY9rDsQgd4?t=891 out of so many board you just gotta choose that one fails VRM testing right?

    • 

      BROKENKEYBOARD on 08/06/2021 - 00:27

      Well I did say might, always double check if it'll be compatible with what you have since not everyone uses the same CPU and clocks. But if you're someone that wants to run an overclocked 3950X then yes, spend a little more than $109 on a motherboard.

      • 

        OMGJL on 08/06/2021 - 10:36

        you should look at WATT, not cores. It is quite obvious 3950x is expensive and gamers won't need that many cores. but the test was done with a 4.3Ghz all core, consider 3950x boost to about 4.7Ghz, static OC of 4.3Ghz wasn't high.

        However ryzen 5000s pull much more power than the previous ryzen 3000s, for example under PBO or just a regular static overclock both my two 5600x will pull around 150w power in total under load, 20w or so towards IO die, the rest 130w to the cores, so… simple math, a 8 core would draw around 193 watt (130/6*8+20), and that's near the 200w testing they done.

        there are also plenty people getting 5900x

          @OMGJL: I simply linked a motherboard that looks cheap and said it might be good. If it's not suitable for you then cool don't get it but for others that just want a simple board then it might be suitable. Again I say might because I'm not going to assume everyone's needs.

            @BROKENKEYBOARD: might shouldn't be used like that. no offense in any means, just like I can't say someone might die tonight, because I'm not going to assume their luckiness. right?

            providing a link with "might be good too" looks like a recommendation, even if it wasn't intended by you.

            The $99 Asrock B550m pro 4 is a better choice, at least it can hold a 8 core CPU.

  Only thing missing is the Thunderbolt 4 would have loved to see that.

    What uses are there for the Thunderbolt 4? I have it on mine and its idle.

      I suppose when you are dealing with big files and need that fast transfer speed.

      connect external monitors, Thunderbolt & USB devices with single Thunderbolt 4 cable & improved data & video performance.

      Enhance gaming setups with gaming docks & video capture solutions to record gameplay at the highest settings.

      Connecting high-speed SSD allows you to take your library/software on the go.

      Thunderbolt 4 universal cables help simplify cable selection. Charge & transfer at the same time.

  Oh damn I got the non-AX model a week or so ago from PCCG for $149 and thought it wouldn't be beat.
  Still, very happy with the purchase, would recommend.

  Seems to be one of the few B560 boards that actually holds up well to stress tests.
