I've been using a Z97 Extreme6 for a couple of years now with ZERO problems, and needed to upgrade a multi-media machine at work. Knowing the success I've had with ASRock, and not wanting to leave it to chance, I went with the Extreme 4 (saved a few pennies over the Extreme 6), and it absolutely does everything JUST as well big brother. The eight SATA 3 slots were JUST enough for the big Lian Li case we're running, which is running 4 HHDs and 2 optical drives. With an i7 4770k cpu and 32gb of RAM, dual GPU's and 6 case fans, the ASRock eats it up and comes back for more. A Corsair 850w psu keeps it running smoothly, and we're ready to watch Archie Bunker Youtubes all day at work! :-p The UEFI is easy to understand and set up to taste. The App Shop does NOT want to run on the Extreme 4 - I've heard of it failing with other people on various computer boards, and it won't run on mine either. Runs GREAT on my 6, but NOT on the 4. No big loss I think, but there you have it. If you're still running a Gen.4 cpu, the ASRock Z97 Extreme series is WHAT you want. I've had great success with my 6, and this 4 is off to a great start. I expect good things out of it for years to come.Read full review

The extreme 4 board works super well... except when you have an error prior to post. The on board display on it gives you hints to the problem, but if your inexperienced with hardware it can be a pain. When you post though, and get things working as they should, the board shines with uefi and it's bios setup. Altogether a good board if you happen onto a haswell series chip

switched from a z75 pro 3 and this one is definitely better. some strange cable plug placements such as the hd audio and 1 or 2 of the fans but other than that this mobo is great.
