Worth it for Tri-SLI
06/24/2013
This review is from: ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VI EXTREME LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Gaming Motherboard
Pros:
The ROG uefi is flawless, the eye pulse lets you know when you pushed the board to far, HW fast boot from power button to web surfing is averaging 10 seconds(win7). so many sata3 ports, you can run 2 separate uefi's with separate chips, OC panel is very nice in my haf-x. easy, EASY OC controls. I liked this, but you may not>>the board has almost ZERO drivers preloaded, you get a usb 2.0 and sound and not many more(caused huge issues with my tri-sli for my first set-up), USE THE DISK....i'm not goign to rattle off all the pros past that, if you think about it or watch the great asus rog review the guy kills the specs.
Supports over 2x sli---not many 1150's do this.
Cons:
Can not find if the alc 1150 chip(the one on the extreme) or the supremeFX (hero)audio chip is better, no flashing ROG eye logo on the plx chip heat sink(actually bugged me more than i though it would)
Overall Review:
If you want quality, its here. I lucked out and got one the day newegg put them up. coming from a i7 920 and a EVGA x58 FTW3 its a big difference.
I7 4770K @ 4.2 w/ H60 and 2 corsair SP 120's
8g Ripjaws @ 2366
240g corsair neutron SSD
3x EVGA GTX 570SC's
HAF-X
Corsair HX850 modular PSU
