I am looking at ASRock extreme 6 mobo, and find its rating is actually not good in newegg, 26% reviews gave the rating '1' - the lowest rating. This should be a pretty high end mobo, right? why it's quality does not look that good.

Where do you guys buy mobo or other parts? If it's the same mobo, does it matter you buy it from newegg, amazon, ebay, or else? Any recommendation where to buy??
Thank you.!!!
 
I buy where I get it the cheapest! Now I do not know which extreme6 board you are talking about since there is one in every series but I know that if people have any kind of trouble be it from bad product or low tech knowledge the are more likely to voice their opinion. Therefore I would take those reviews with a grain of salt and buy the board anyway since the extreme 6 is normally very good.

Customer reviews are just about worthless for computer components.

I shop at whatever retailer gives me the best price.

thanks DSzymborski.
But why do you think reviews are about worthless?? if there are really many customers having problem with the product? Or, maybe that's just a very small portion, is this what you think?
 


Ok quick look at customer reviews, 1 egg most users using FX 9xxx. Only Asrock board I would use those in is Extreme 9!
That is a great board for FX83xx series.

I have fx8320, so extreme 6 should be way enough for me, right?

Because it's not a random sampling. Customer reviews of products online are essentially internet polls with yelling.
