Reply With QuoteI actually thought assrock was a good brand until i read some horror stories over at ocn(on the apu boards) and here.Originally Posted by adrenaline
True, but it is asrock's (@ssrock as I like to refer to them) fault for putting the 6100 on their compatible CPU list. Lucky for me amazon is taking the motherboard back for a full refund even though I'm passed the refund window. But seriously I can't even find a micro atx board to use with my 6100 now... The only micro atx board for it that seems possible would be the asus 760g, but I'm scared I might have the same kinds of issues. All of the 900 series boards are not micro sized((((

Apparently they are going to cheap on the vrm and often deliver bad bios not a good combination that:P
I highly doubt the Asus board will have issue, as they are a good brand imho
Yust make sure to get the board that supports 125w cpu as going 95 watts board is a strecth especially in a crammed case.
Also depending on your airflow it might be a good idea to have a fan blowing directly at the vrm.
This might also make your asrock board stable, but you probly better off sending that board back :P
