11/7/2023 0 Comments Asus armoury crate update center![]() ![]() My AB350M Pro4 hasn't been too bad but it certainly has its issues. Yeah ASRock definitely has one of the worst overall reputations. I built the rig before my current one in 2008 ffs. Haha we're basically the opposite, I've been building since the late 90s yet I've only had to build about 4 rigs because I'm poor lol so I typically use them until they die. Even when you kill the processes, they pop back up and I can't find the root process.ĭang dude that was a hell of a reply, thanks! ![]() Im about to wipe my PC to get this malware off because its some of the most inefficiently written crap I've ever seen, and has single handidly reduced my Cinebench R23 multithreading score by over 1500 points (over 10%). SO I need to use ASUS' stupid Armoury Crate just to get it to function. I've never had a RAM issue on an MSI board, but Asrock infuriates me to this day because I just bought some RGB RAM and even though it was "Polychrome SYNC" validated, the fucking software doesnt detect it. That aside, MSI has some of the easiest to navigate BIOS's for me personally anyways, and some of the broadest memory compatibility. If they have a type C port at all, its on the rear. Im just so used to Gigabyte, Asrock and ASUS boards at that price range on b550 not having that. I was so certain that it didn't have a type C header and I warned the guy it wouldn't be functional. I remember being shocked when I was putting together a build just a few months ago with a case that had a front panel type C header and using the B550m Pro VDH Wifi. are all outstanding boards for their prices. Granted I havent used bottom of the barrel MSI boards but the that tier above like b450 Tomahawk, a520m Pro (not the -A variant), B660m Bazooka, or Pro VDH etc. Haven't bricked the thing yet, but Im not hopeful. I got the B550 Extreme4 for a great price two years ago and Im used to Asrock's jank, but its still infuriating even trying to fiddle with the memory timings and half the time my BIOS updates will just fail. I've become sort of a word-of-mouth PC guy at work and in the local community I guess.Įvery single build I've put together that used Asrock, including my own, has given me some kind of headache. I've only been buying / building PCs for the past 5 years or so, so I can't speak for prior to that, but I have built probably 50-60 PCs in that time. Seems like PC building has turned into a lottery or at least more than it's always been. ![]() I was going to go with the Taichi razer edition as it had everything I was looking for at my $200 budget (POST code display, BIOS flashback, front USB-C header, etc that can't be found on other boards until you spend twice the money, looking at you A$U$) but I loath razer and just don't know anymore. Maybe I should reconsider?ĪSRock has been pretty good to me with this build but their reputation is concerning. MSI seems like the only one left to go with but I vowed a decade ago to never again buy their products after so many failures in various builds and the worst customer support I've ever experienced. Gigabyte has always seemed very hit and miss, some products are praised while others are lambasted. I have a cheap ASRock now but everyone seems to constantly shit all over them, the latest sticker issue seems blown way out of proportion but everyone just hates them.
