Still no sign of a user manual/qualified vendor list but they are getting there slowly.

ASUS Launches the Rampage III Extreme and Maximus III Extreme Motherboards

http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/news...iii-extreme-maximus-iii-extreme-motherboards/

The Rampage III Extreme and Maximus III Extreme are available now at authorized ASUS retailers for an MSRP of $399 and $349 respectively.

Seems to be slowly getting there... the ASUS rep over here seem to have gone missing this 2 weeks...

Just thought I'd link the UK product page for those interested:

ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Rampage III Extreme

VortX · 14 Apr 2010 at 23:45

In all honesty I would put money on it being available tomorrow (fingers crossed), the reason I say that is because over in the states obviously they are 8 hours behind, so it is mid day for them and it is released now. It is also on the UK page now, so by the time the retailers and couriers are fired up tomorrow I am betting we will see some R3Es appear

The CPU support list has been taken down :confused:

please! No delays!

bhavv · 15 Apr 2010 at 00:08

$399 vs £329 :rolleyes:

Yeah it should be about £290 to be fair but hey, what do you expect lol.

bhavv · 15 Apr 2010 at 00:23

buy it on release and it will be £280 two weeks later

The CPU support list is back up too, still no QV list though, but it isn't on the global site either but it's out in the USA so who knows, just wish they would let us Brits have it

Apparently etailers should be getting it this week or early next week.

Helios....is it worth moving from a Classified 759 to this. I'm only ever going to run 2 cards, so having 3x16x lanes on the classified is no benefit. And the Rampage should run cooler over no nforce200 chipset. The only advantage the Classified has for me is the fact the pci-e 1x slot for the soundcard is at the top of the board whereas on the Rampage it's between the gpu slots. While this makes no difference using stock dual slot gpu's as the spacing is still very good, I am hoping to get 2 Asus Ares at some stage which takes 3 slots a piece.
