I was quite pleased with the performance the X99 Strix has to offer, even running everything on stock settings and this board helps to offer maximum performance. The numbers don't lie and when it came to overclock my...

No LEDs on PCH heatsink, “ASUS have worked their magic to create a pioneering motherboard which brings a host of stylish features to the X99 platform such as the Aura lighting system. Not only that, ASUS STRIX X99 Gaming has loads of connectivity options,
PricingAt the time of writing, the ASUS STRIX X99 GAMING is available from Overclockers UK for a very respectable price of £279.99 plus shipping. Its nearest competitor, the MSI Gaming Pro Carbon costs £274.99 plus shipping, and both products are superb o...
As you approach £300 and start adding a few notes to the price of the cheaper X99 motherboards out there, you expect some extra features for your cash. Here the ROG Strix X99 Gaming delivers with solid overclocking performance and plenty of features that...
Given that this is one of the very first ‘new' X99 motherboards I've had the pleasure of looking at, I wasn't all too sure what to expect. I had a feeling that it should be roughly the same as the older motherboards, for obvious reasons, but some things u...

Bundle is fair but could do with a little more. A few more stickers perhaps?
The STRIX range expands once again, and boy what an impact it's made with the first motherboard. As always we simply cannot wait to see what ASUS pull out the bag next. Upgrading to X99? then stick this at the top of your shopping list!Based on everything...
It would be a real surprise if we received a board from ASUS which was lacking in build quality and so it should be no shock that this enthusiast product is built to a high standard. We get enhanced audio (including two amps and dedicated audio capacitors...
