Review on ASRock B365M PHANTOM GAMING 4 LGA1151 Intel B365 DDR4 Quad CrossFireX SATA3 USB3.1 M.2 A GbE MicroATX Motherboard with enhanced SEO by Nick Reddy

Solid value and then some.

Purchased to replace the purchased MSI B360M Performance Gaming motherboard. Compared to the MSI board (aside from being sold a defective used MSI board that wasn't listed as used) the quality seems to be day and night with little difference in price. Multi-GPU support, 4 RAM slots, integrated Wi-Fi all contribute to the premium look and build. For example, on the MSI board, the USB 3.0 connector's pins seemed to bend if viewed the wrong way, while the Asrock board has good hard pins. I installed an i5-9400f and 16GB of DDR4-2666 RAM and all I had to do was set the RAM to 2666 in the BIOS (literally from the drop down menu). I know there are much more expensive boards out there (and cheaper, buyers beware) but this one seems very good for the price. I hope it lasts as long as my previous Asrock Z77 v3 and it's possible because I can upgrade to an i7-9700k if I want!

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • Vulgarity
