you can OC it as well on Asrock motherboard

I agree with you with the fact that even a 200GE is enough as once OC you will get the same result than the most expensive one.
It is an ultra cool CPU for HTPC, even OCed it can be cooled passively... for this use it's gold.

At this price those CPUs seem really nice, definitely a better pick than the pentium.

I am quite impressed at how well the ZEN and Vega archs scale (though Vega only down). Also, while these products aren't something I would buy for myself, it's good to know they are out there and how they perform in case someone asks me to build them a low-budget PC.
