There are eight SATA 6.0 Gbps, 12 if you include the SATA ports on the dual SATA Express ports.

There is Intel Thunderbolt, PS / 2 for mouse and keyboard, gigabit networking, 802.11ac wireless networking and Bluetooth 4.0.

The audio circuit SupremeFX assists with 7.1-channel digital output and headphone amplifier.

So here we go, some Rampage goodness:

Any news on whether they'll do a black edition?

That was a special edition and I don't see one of those appearing in the near future.

With the current exchange rate that brings the RVE in at £317.46, surely not??

The converter isn't joking.

I see that on their site, G.Skill now have the RVE showing up on their QVL for most of their DDR4.

So who else has ordered or going to order one?

Clov!s said:
Oh yes I've ordered my CPU and memory and the board separate, I've taken my system apart already and sold the hardware, so I'm without a system until my board arrives

The wait is annoying yet exciting

My memory has arrived:

Just waiting on the rest of it all to turn up, hopefully tomorrow. I have a working system and won't upgrade until the end of the week if it all arrives this week.
