The editors didn't like

  • Price!
  • 3-way GPU will clear out all other slots
  • 2-way will leave one PCI-E 16x free
  • Would expect to see more USB and S-ATA on an expensive motherboard
  • $400 price (Unless you take advantage of overclocking
  • This is not worth it).
  • Other then nit picking about the upper PCIE x1 not a thing.
  • Expensive
  • Third graphics card runs in PCIe x8 mode
  • Turbo mode doesn’t work correctly
  • And the toggle switch is difficult to use.

  • Abstract:  We would have liked to have published this round-up much earlier, but as you know things happen, especially when dealing with broad subjects and a lot of comprehensive tests. While we may not be the first, we had a chance to witness how BIOS versions o...

  • Fast, Overclocking features, Alot of accessories, Stable performance, High quality heatsinks
  • Price!
  • This board sells for around 300$ which is way more than a normal consumer would put on a motherboard, overclockers on the other hand might easily end up paying it. It got alot of cool overclocking features and were able to boost our processor quite hi...

  • To date, ASUS Rampage II Extreme is one of the best implementations of capabilities of the Intel X58 chipset. This model will suit most overclockers and enthusiasts since it offers powerful onboard overclocking tools, impressive expansion options, and...

  • Working with this kind of hardware was a real pleasure. We only regret that we didn’t have better cooler for Corei7-920 CPU so we cannot give you definite overclock values for CPU. By lowering multiplier of QPI bus we concluded that limits are aroun...

  • With a board as robust as this, its difficult to find an opener for the conclusion. The Rampage II Extreme is easily one of the most incredible boards weve come across. Its feature-set is huge, and its overclocking-ability even greater. Thats not t...
