ASRock have developed a comprehensive UEFI which is one of the best out there, although not quite as feature filled as the ones we've seen on Asus motherboards. The interface is easy to navigate, letting us overclock the system in an easy to see manner.
Being a Mini-ITX motherboard, we weren't expecting to achieve a very significant overclock with the A75M-ITX. But, we were disappointed with the overclocking ability of the motherboard which is negligible at best. While it is possible to boot and load up windows with a substantial overclock, running any program to stress the system causes it to crash. Unfortunately, this also happened with a slight overclock; even a small bump in the baseclock of 5 MHz caused instability.
Decent motherboard. I doubt people buying one of these will want to overclock much anyway. no need with a media center.
I have this board, I didn’t get it overclocked at all and gave up. Its a good board though.
afternoon everyone all the best to yous for 2012

Cool review, one thing missing though! Please add the results of just using the 6670, I really want to see the benifit, I know there are other reviews that does this, but I want to see if it improves as the drivers gets more up to date.
But yeah if I was building an HTPC today, I would either get this or Asus Llano board(that actually has Wifi) along with a low profile 6670, you could really make a small machine pack quite a punch.
