Still haven't decided yet, been leaning towards this stuff:

Although I'm concerned at the lack of heatsink on them, worst case I could use my EK dominator waterblocks on them

When these things all become available on OcUK, I may have to spec something and have a talk with myself...

Yes, E-ATX

12" by 10.7"

30.5cm by 27.2 cm

Same size as the previous board.

So only 3cm wider... Should fit in my Carbide 300r without too much need for a Dremel... :-)

looks like the extra CPU pins asus enabled on this board improve performance.

TTL's review is bad man. 1.3+ volts on Corsair H100 would mean 100C straight up in any sort of heavy loading. You would need quad rad at least for these kinda volts.

TTL what the hell!!

Yo Ian- anymore ROG boards lined up soon? That RVE isn't a looker but I bet she's good where it counts

I do like this board.
I think for me it will probably be between this and the Gigabyte SOC Force board (been quite pleased with my Z87X-OC board).

Cosimo · 31 Aug 2014 at 09:55

So who else has ordered or going to order one?

[Death] · 31 Aug 2014 at 10:09

as soon as they come into stock
