ASRock Ion 330 HT Review

[JorgeEFM]

I must confess...If it´s really true about the Promise of 4 seconds Boot than I definetely will buy an ASRock! Is this really True??? I mean let´s consider at least Avast IS and Malwarebytes loading with Windows 7...Please, answer. Thanks!

This is a great little device for home entertainment. You could put XBMC on it and rock out. Now I just need to find it at a good price.

[recorps1]

this is a really good pc. i purchased one strictly for my media using media portal and i love recording my programs and watching my movies without disks. i might later add a bluray player but is there a plugin for MP for bluray?

great reveiw mate

Hi Motherboardsorg,

Please, could you tell me which keyboard are you using in the video?

It seems great to control without wires.

Thanks

[MissFizzy501]

Great video

[MRStiklly]

SWEAT PATCHES OMGGGGGG ITS HUGE

[einzerox11]

Amazing video difitnely helped me decide weather to go for the popcorn hour and ION !! ION FTW !! 

[EZbakeROFLcakes]

can someone tell me why some people think it odd that you can oc with this board, i see ocing as a way to get the most value out of my system :O

[Razor4ever]

Hey can You tell me if this would run Lineage 2 or Red Alert 3 on full detail smoothly?

[fucketifuck]

@Razor4ever would not thik so... even my old piece of junk that im sitting on now (a budget pc bought like 4-5 years back) out performs this in processor speed, memory and graphics... and i cant play ra3 with high settings :P this aint a gamming pc exactly.

[wombat023]

I want one! :)

[FriedChicken4Life]

Im lost. what exactly is the point of having an OC ability on this type system?

info would be appreciated

[motherboardsorg]

Because it can be Overclocked!!!

[FriedChicken4Life]

lol ok

Just seems a little pointless,but as you said in the vid, it does kinda have its merits

Thanks for reply

[ColaBubbleTea]

@motherboardsorg the overclock wouldn't be able to be handle on a barebone system like this

[itachi46]

why would you not... its always a nice option to have :)

[FriedChicken4Life]

You're right :)

silly me

[Jonnyinter1]

What's the case on the intro at 0:13 - the pic on the left

[KooolaBe]

cackle cackle

[lugerman]

I wonder if it would handle Bluray? I was looking at these a while ago, decided against them but after seeing them running... thinking about it again.

[motherboardsorg]

It handles Blu-Ray no problem....

[lugerman]

Just reading another review and it definitely does. The first Atom/Ion system i saw with my own eyes struggled. It must've been the software. I think I'll get the bluray version of it then! ... or a older PS3 which can take linux... oh the choices.

[CoreyPL]

@lugerman ASRock made ION 330HT-BD version with Blu-Ray drive. It handles Blu-Ray movies without a problem with content accelerated with ION.

[BabaraBabara911]

Hey Lets throw a HD5970 in there XD

[elkwithinstruments]

lol overclocking this

[motherboardsorg]

I know, but hey at least it functions and can be overclocked................

[elkwithinstruments]

i'll probably get one for our home theatre downstairs

i doubt i'll be using it for anything other than media and the occasional internet browsing

[jewlzorjay]

Can i just ask because I'm thinking about something like this. and i don't know much about this.

Can you still do documents?

and can you still stream flash stuff like you tube?

i want this to be a proper PC but on my living room TV is this that?

[aandrei1389]

@jewlzorjay it is perfect for that. i keep it hooked up to my HD tv for movies and it can do straming and documents just fine. it is a great value for money

[grpace]

Out of stock at newegg would be perfect for my mom.

For the price you cant build a custom ion either.

[motherboardsorg]

Its really bad ass, I like it quite a bit as it solves a lot of problems with space, and with Win 7 it played all my media without a problem....

[jbeebrylle]

Goldberg!

[kingdong4]

rofl that nvidia ion is crazy small

[untreat]

That is REALLY small.

[pilsener13]

jejjeje

[cncmasterw]

thats one small thing O_O
