Yea, really happy with this board. This was my first ever ASRock and high-end board, seems like its OC capability is unquestioned. Timely BIOS updates are a plus too.
Edit: Just had it for a day. No real issues. Edited by Morrowless - 11 Mar 2017 at 10:34pm |

Thanks for the info. Probably my old router then. No way I'll reach 5 Gigabit speeds any time soon over Internet, and I don't have any use for local Ethernet... so call it a waste lol. It was either this or Taichi x370. Only the Fatal1ty was in stock so..

I should have added that I fully believe it is communication related issue(s) between the Aquantia 5G pot and 10/100/1000 network equipment. We'll most likely see firmware updates for all our 10/100/1000 devices as soon as more and more Aquantia and other 5G PHY's become widely sold and used. |

I found the Aquantia 5G port flaky when used with 10/100/1000 routers and my switches. Not sure if it is the additional protocols or just what exactly.
My other problem is, while I did just recently buy a 5G switch, I only have one box with the Aquantia to test with thus I can't troubleshoot any further until I get another board with an Aquantia on it. Stick with the Intel NIC/PHY. At least IMO more 5G networking devices become readily available and less costly. There is nothing to be gained unless you have 5G capable equipment from the MB all the way to and including your router and cable modem, or DSL modem. Edit for clarification to include "and cable modem," Edited by wardog - 11 Mar 2017 at 11:38pm |

Some web sites load images every slowly or is not loading at all. Battle.net for example; can't connect at all to Overwatch. Installed latest drivers.
If I switch to Intel Ethernet it works. So definitely an issue with the Aquantia. Edited by Morrowless - 11 Mar 2017 at 9:10pm |
