I don't really consider ASRock boards to be quality and tend to not really use them. If you are building a X3D system anytime soon you should probably read the article.

From the post:

>AMD's X3D-series Ryzen chips have become popular with PC gamers because games in particular happen to benefit disproportionately from the chips' extra 64MB of L3 cache memory. But that extra memory occasionally comes with extra headaches. Not long after they were released earlier this year, some early adopters started having problems with their CPUs, ranging from failure to boot to actual physical scorching and burnout—the problems were particularly common for users of the 9800X3D processor in ASRock motherboards, and one Reddit thread currently records 157 incidents of failure for that CPU model across various ASRock boards.

To be fair ASRock has always been one of those iffy brands and you do need high quality hardware for the new high-end AMD CPUs.
