After testing the ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6, how did it stand up given its low price point? The aesthetics of the board are very good in my opinion. The black heatsinks in conjunction with the contrasting gold heatsinks give the motherboard a very nice fin...

Having had the chance to get to grips with the ASRock FM2A85X-ITX motherboard, we could tell ASRock were trying to blend in stylish and sleek aesthetics with a range of high end components. Did they succeed in combining the latest A85X chip on such a ...
Abstract: After just one generation, Socket FM1 is dead. We test six Socket FM2-based motherboards able to take AMD's newest APUs built using the Trinity architecture. Can any of these platforms, armed with AMD A85X Fusion Controller Hubs, get us to upgrade? Onc...
ASRock have really put together a nice board here that offers a variety of aspects that any user would be screaming out for. The style is something that some manufacturers can only wish to have and we've made it extremely clear that it's a sexy looking th...
Our review of the ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6 mainboard has come to an end. We started it with a short panegyric on the company’s success and have no intention of taking our words back. ASRock mainboards based on Intel Z77 Express and designed for LGA 115...

VRM and BIOS ready to overclock, Inclusion of XFast 555 Software gives the ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6 a leg above the rest, Good audio rendering, Full-ATX Expansion capabilities, Simple color scheme that can easily match other components well, Fully function
Overclock designs on APU platform lead to limited performance gains, Auto overclocking profiles and XMP settings interfere with manual adjustments, No SLI support
When it comes to FM2, ASRock provides a pretty good feature set, a pretty good BIOS, and decent performance. Other than that, there's not really a lot to say here. As a high-end product for a value platform, it hits the mark and then some.One of the bi...
The ASRock board is aimed squarely at the middle of the pack for FM2-A85X motherboards, sitting near the cheaper side of middle in the $80 to $140 range at $100. This means the ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6 is $40 less than the ASUS F2A85-V Pro board, which ac...
