As you've probably already heard, Conformal Coating protects the motherboards from conductive liquids, dust, corrosion and extreme temperatures*. And if you still feel skeptical about the lifespan of your overclocking oriented motherboards, fear not! ASRock guarantees 5 year warranty!
ASRock's Z87 OC Formula/ac and Z87 OC Formula are designed by the world famous overclocker Nick Shih. These two motherboards possess both hardware and software features for extreme overclocking, and they are also fully loaded with a set of lifestyle based features named A-Style. ASRock provides the five year warranty package as long as the malfunctions and defects occur under normal use conditions and aren't caused by misuse or abnormal operations**. If unfortunately the motherboard cannot be repaired, ASRock will replace the product with equivalent or next generation products.

That being said, ASRock really seem to be striking all the right keys the last three generations of motherboards. They really are improving at an impressive rate, and I hope they continue this trend all the way to the top spot among motherboard manufacturers.
thats a decent warranty, ive not known of many lengthy warranties tbf.
its a pity their bios for the Fatality isnt perfect, but they like being innovative!
Next mobo is going to be either Gigabyte or ASRocking
(Initial research suggests they're telling the same lie about their z87 offerings)
Digitally Controlled Dual PWM doesn't mean digital PWM?
MSI were honest about it and called their PWM hybrid digital, ASRock just lies and called it digital.

It doesn't make ASRock motherboards any worse of a product, but I wouldn't believe a damn thing their marketing department says.
I would prefer they offered faster turnaround times for warranty replacements. Depending on where you live, warranty can take 4 -8 weeks.
