ASRock are stepping up their game. It has taken a lot of time persuading the enthusiast audience, but in the last year we have seen the company develop and progress, especially with their motherboard designs. Today we are looking at the ASRock P67 Fatal1ty Professional motherboard, which is targeted at the hardcore gaming audience.
We briefly looked at this product with our Intel 2500k and 2600k launch coverage, but today we put it under the KitGuru microscope.

Looks the part, thats for sure. nice specs. They are never a company I consider when im looking at a motherboard however.
great looking product, no doubt about it.
Layout looks good, i wouldnt be so sure about jumping from Asus mind you yet, early days for them in this sector/
I wouldn’t mind one of these for my new system next month, but im waiting on an MSI big bang board whenever that is scheduled. anyone know?
Interesting to see ASROCk trying to break their older reputation for releasing poorly configured but cheap products. they seem to be doing well this year so far.
Excellent all round specifications and build quality. pricing isnt too bad either, although for 60 more you can get into the X58 sector.
I love red and black, wicked. Just hate to see that guys face everywhere, very annoying!
Previously I was only looking at Gigabyte and Asus (in that order) but lately I start to notice MSI and now ASRock… interesting…
There is almost no reason to get this board when the ASRock Extreme 4 is basically the exact same board without the silly fatality mouse port and red colors while being $40 cheaper.
And you don’t have to stare at the guy’s face while in UEFI :p
Oops, meant the extreme6, not extreme4
I just ordered one – hope its clocks my 2600k well
