I have now been using this motherboard for 3 years and have had no particular problems since. Works very well and I haven't run out of slots on this motherboard despite the mini-ATX.
I would recommend it.
I received the order three days after purchasing online. The product is easy to install and I recommend the product.
I bought this motherboard to refresh my father's dying desktop setup. I was afraid of the comments on ASRock motherboards about the need to upgrade to support certain processors. Anyway, I had no trouble getting the Athlon 3000G to recognize me, everything worked on the first try. The BIOS is very nice and easy to configure. All my disks were recognized, I could even restart my Mint 18.3 without having to reinstall anything. After updating to Mint 19.3 and using the 5.3 kernel, I was even able to take advantage of the Vega hardware acceleration thanks to the amdgpu driver.
Now let's hope it lasts but after a few days everything is very stable!
