So can anyone tell me the major differences between the rampage 2 and 3? Call me a noob but they both look pretty much the same to me. I managed to get a rampage ii for £140 the other day is it worth the extra ~ 200 for a ramage 3?
 
The board doesn't support quad SLI since it doesn't have an NF200 chip. You get some extra features such as ROG Connect and RC Bluetooth but it's not worth another £200.

That's a bargain you got there!

It does with the sister board that is coming out.
 
Having seen the Xpander myself, there's nothing physically stopping the daughter board being from used on another motherboard so technically even the Rampage II Extreme could support quad SLI.

But at this point, I don't know if there are other factors that limits it to the R3E.
 
I'm after getting the ASUS Rampage III Extreme. anyone know when O/C will be getting stock.
I take it slot 3 is 16x also ? as it will have tri fire. 1 5970, & 1 5870. as the 5870 will be in the 3rd slot for better cooling.

Cheers
