ASRock nice!

Here's hoping the article I read about an Eth-capable ASIC miner is true. Might help bring mid-to-high end graphics prices back down to earth.

I hope they compete with Sapphire's implementations, that is, huge heatsinks and fans. My Sapphire RX 570s have lower temps at lower fan speeds compared to other brands. If you get lucky, they also overclock higher.

I like the (kinda) old school cooler design, but the clock speeds don't have me confident for now.

Warranty: 1 year

Having once had a graphics card fail after a little more than a year, with only a 1 year warranty, I now try to avoid cards with such short warranties. At least if a card fails after a couple years or more, there will likely be substantially better hardware on the market, so you can think of it as a good excuse to upgrade. Most cards now offer 2 to 3 years of coverage, so it would be nice to see ASRock do the same. It doesn't show much confidence in their hardware if they don't appear to be reasonably sure that it will last at least 2 years.

Excited to see them finally on the VGA side of things. All motherboard players have them but Asrock.
Will be interesting to see what they will do in the future, as they always been very innovative with their motherboards.
