The Republic of Gamers consists only the best of the best. ASUS offers the best hardware engineering, the fastest performance, the most innovating ideas, and welcomes the best gamers to join in. In the Republic of Gamers, mercy rules are only for the weak, and bragging rights means everything.
The Rampage IV Extreme/Battlefield 3 aims to fulfill PC enthusiasts’ needs towards superior performance. The Rampage IV Extreme/Battlefield3 motherboard supports the latest LGA 2011 socket for 2nd generation Intel Core i7 and Extreme Edition Processors, and it ships with some truly revolutionary advanced features. New is the OC Key, a dongle device that allows you to monitor and adjust system settings in real-time, even while in-game without any extra software needed while the X-Socket feature allows you to keep using a LGA 1366 CPU cooler on a X79 Rampage IV Extreme/Battelfiled3 motherboard, saving you your hard earned cash. Tactical video support is available for 4-Way SLI and CrossFireX, which helps drive home the smoothest gaming experience. With great performance excellence, it’s time to dominate the Battlefield.

PCIe 3.0 ReadyThe latest PCI Express bus standard delivers improved encoding for twice the performance of current PCIe 2.0. Total bandwidth for a x16 link reaches a maximum of 32GB/s, double the 16GB/s of PCIe 2.0 (in x16 mode). PCIe 3.0 provides users unprecedented data speeds combined with the convenience and seamless transition offered by complete backward compatibility with PCIe1.0 and PCIe 2.0 devices. It is a must-have feature PC users aiming to improve and optimize graphics performance, as well as have the latest, most future-proof technology. (This motherboard is ready to support PCIe 3.0 SPEC. Functions will be available when using PCIe 3.0-compliant devices.)
Extreme Engine Digi+ IIThe Extreme Engine Digi+ II has been upgraded and equipped with the finest Japan-made 10K Black metallic capacitors, while the digital VRM design allows you to achieve ultimate performance with adjustable CPU and memory power management frequencies. Precise adjustments create greater efficiency, stability, five times longer lifespan than solid capacitors* and performance for total system control. (*At operating temperature of 105°C)
ROG OC KeyMonitor the status of your system in real-time with OSD Monitor while tweak the parameters with OSD TweakIt, both come with a convenient graphical overlay displayed right on screen. OSD Monitor allows you to view POST codes in real-time, complete hardware status and even the readout from VGA Hotwire and Subzero Sense, all at a pure hardware level. And, OSD TweakIt provides you with a set of critical and hardware-driven functions so you can tweak your system on-the-fly.
VGA HotwireLove to overvolt but got mad trimming the tiny variable resistors? With the VGA Hotwire feature, plug the two-wire cable onboard and solder two wires on the VGA's voltage regulator and accurately adjust the voltage, taking your system to the next level while avoiding some risks.
Subzero SenseLove overclocking in LN2 mode, but have trouble finding out just how cold your board is? Worry no more, with Subzero Sense you can read the system’s temperature even in its coldest subzero degrees temperature.
X-SocketDon't junk that expensive LGA1366 heatsink! With X-Socket, switch out the LGA2011 pad for a 1366 one and get more life out of your previous CPU cooler.

Pros: RC (Remote Control) Tweaker is awesome for OCing if you have a laptop. OCing is easy - until the VRM begins overheating (see cons). The ROG.asus forum is great support, use it instead of Asus support for your problems. 2x SLI gfx is done W/two slots between, leaving lots of airflow for your gfx cards, and long bridges are provided (Nvidia & AMD). Personally I love the ProbeIt connectors as I use a DMM to monitor Vcore. It has a wealth of diagnostic LEDs to help if you have trouble booting. Dual BIOS prevents bad flashes from ruining/delaying your day. Works as advertized right out of the box - but may OC better W/update (don't use the Windows utility, doesn't work). Can read USB (to update BIOS) without bootable formatting - just transfer the BIOS file to the USB key first. Supplied other backplate allows 1366 coolers mount.
Cons: No VRM (Voltage Regulator) temperature monitoring, and it limits your OC, downclocks your CPU automatically. My OC is quite limited due to this. I don't want to go to the trouble of a full-blown custom water cooling loop just to cool the VRM. Some ppl have trouble with certain memory on this board, but I suspect it was either settings or lack of aux mem power plug. I didn't after I used the "tight PSC profile" feature. This board is not for newbs. The Ai Suite II freezes during CPU stress test, not updating fan speed and temps (use other utils). "OC Key" is dissapointing, and requires a second USB keyboard to be useful. It also does not pass analog, nor dual-link DVI. Fortunatley the RC Tweaker makes up for it, and properly displays the fan speeds and temps (not concurrently though) during CPU stress test. eATX size requires a large case.
Overall Review: The SB fan is quiet, even on optional faster profile, I cannot hear it W/case open, and they say it doesn't hurt to turn it off even. Connect the extra aux power plugs. These 6-core CPUs put out a lot of heat, expect to go W/high-end cooling unless you go stock CPU speed, and then you still need a good CPU cooler W/that. This platform is a little harder to get memory to work properly, be sure to verify your mem W/Memtest86+ V4.2 before installing Windows. There is an issue W/certain SSDs in RAID on the SATA III ports, see the ROG forums. 8 4-pin PWM fan headers for better fan control means you may not need that separate fan controller you might be thinking about. The three "OPT" fans have less speed control. BF3 code comes on a 3x5" black card W/scratch-off; requires good Internet speed. Sleep works fine at my 4.6GHz 3930K OC, W/C7. I don't use the onboard sound, I use a high-end sound card, but I have not heard any complaints. You can use a mouse in the UEFI BIOS, but the keyboard is
