ASRock Z77 Extreme6 Motherboard w/ Intel i7-3770K Review

Henry Butt April 23, 2012 CPU, Featured Announcement, Motherboard

ASRock have implemented an attractive-looking UEFI interface which is very easy to use. It's not quite as good as the ASUS UEFI as it doesn't have the same basic mode for less technically advanced users. However, there isn't much to choose between the two for advanced users.

ASrock have included some automatic overclocking features on the main page, which are very good. We used the ASRock Turbo 30 option which boosted the clock speed of our Intel i7-3770K from 3.5 GHz to 4.7 GHz. There are also options available to automatically overclock the CPU to 4.2, 4.4, 4.6 and 4.8 GHz. These all worked very well except the 4.8 GHz option which was unstable without manually enhancing the CPU voltage.

We have included a full set of BIOS screenshots below.

KitGuru Games: The Genius Casting of Kaitlyn Dever in HBO’s The Last of Us

Following an explosive and highly popular first series, HBO’s The Last of Us Season 2 is almost upon us. Set to premiere on the 13th of April, the sequel season based on Naughty Dog’s controversial Part II is likely to spark up even more discourse than the first. Unlike 2020’s masterpiece however, HBO’s adaptation has made one key decision which – if handled well – could not only serve to build upon the theming of the game itself, but also function as a different way to tell the same message. That being the casting of Kaitlyn Dever as Abby.
