Looks very nice!

Why do all of the 3 boards (Rampage 3 Extreme, Formula) look sooooooo much better than the 2 boards (Rampage 2 Extreme blah blah) :( haha
 
To the uninitiated what's the difference between Formula and Extreme? I used to think it was DDR2 vs DDR3 memory but I guess that's not the case anymore?
 
Price and the Formula is 3 way instead of 4....

It used to be DDR2 / DDR3 but obviously DDR3 is the mainstream now :)
 
Ooooooohhhhhh, pretty, but I already haz a Rampage III Extreme =D

On this one, will SLI / Crossfire graphics cards work in slots 1 + 3? Having two cards in slots 1 + 2 is really bad.

I need the R3E slot spacing very much now, please dont change it on whatever will replace it in the future :p

I really love these Rampage series designs, they are brilliant and I want them all just to gawk at and hang up on my wall :(
 
Such a shame that the R3E didnt have better integrated audio, and that the soundcard I were waiting for that should have been released in March still isnt available.
 
Dam nice board. Was going for EVGA *** 3 as liked looks and price but while waiting for corsair 600t to be released it has gone out of stock at the one english retailer that carrys it. Im now waiting till september to build system due to i7 930 going eol and 950's getting introduced so if these are out in september i may just go for it over the evga.

Also due to the corsair 600t taking so long in being released i have had my head turned by
