What intrigued me most about this motherboard was the on board Soundblaster internal DAC system. My headphones are fairly high impedance and this board drives it him with great audio!
The lighting tracks on the back are a nice touch and the build quality is solid. Excellent feature packed board.

I initially purchased this product so that I can game and record / stream at the same time. This was an upgrade from the Core i5 3550 which simply couldn't handle those tasks simultaneously. I am pleased to report that not only does this processor handle those tasks, it does them INCREDIBLY well.

For a wireless system, I was very impressed. The sound quality is very good and there is very little lag at all. Virtually unnoticeable.
That being said, at anything over 50% volume on the receiver box, there is a very obvious white noise coming from the rear speakers. You probably won't hear it if you're watching a movie though.
To fix the above issue, simply increase the volume of your main audio receiver on the rear channels and then turn DOWN the Rocketfish receiver until you've balanced out the sound. This will *almost* eliminate all of the white noise.
I'm also having a slight problem with speaker cut outs when the Rocketfish receiver is not in line of sight (most likely due to interference).
I would still recommend this device for the price!
