Small but amazingly powerful
Keeps up with the mighty (and mid-sized) ASUS P6T.
Excellent performance
Lot of features
Easy understanding of this motherboards capabilities
Plenty of information in the BIOS settings per setting
Abstract: ASUS Rampage II Gene ReviewSo you’ve decided to build a high-end home theater PC (HTPC), or perhaps you want to build a nice portable gaming rig but don’t want to compromise on performance? If so, youll probably want to go with a micro-A...
Excellent performance, Lot of features, Easy understanding of this motherboards capabilities, Plenty of information in the BIOS settings per setting
IOH heatsink could be better
S Even I have to admit I am rather surprised at the performance this little ASUS Rampage II GENE motherboard had to offer me, especially considering that this "is" a micro ATX design motherboard. I did not have much hope for this motherboard to perform...
The Asus Rampage II GENE is the motherboard that I've been waiting for ever since the Core i7 processors were released. Actually, I have been thinking about building a high-end mATX gaming system since the heyday of the Core 2 Quad, but without a comp...
'Size doesn't matter' so they say and if motherboards are anything to go by and on the back of this review I would be inclined to agree. The Rampage II Gene's diminutive size is misleading as it is a very capable performer. While we did not have any other...
Full featured board in uATX style, Integrated XFi, SLI and Crossfire options, Excellent BIOS and overclocking, Top of the line performance at higher resolutions, Thoughtful accessory bundle, Excellent I/O connectivity...

mATX with all the features ATX offers, Despite a small footprint and tight real estate, excellent layout, Overclocks like the big boys, and handles a heavily overclocked i7 very well, For the first time ever, an i7 motherboards price is in the positive co...
The software package needs refining and simplification, Like all other X58 boards, passive chipset cooling needs active fan support, Potential compatibility issue with Elpida Hyper memory
We came into this review ready to tear this motherboard apart. We had overly high expectations since this m-ATX motherboard was not your typical home theater PC platform, so we thought it shouldnt be treated as one. Instead, we thought the Rampage II ...
ASUS has certainly surprised us here with their Rampage II Gene board. For one, how many MicroATX boards out there are for Core i7, let alone supporing any overclocking? - ASUS is for one and it’s definitely one to consider if you’re aiming to...
Lots of innovative tools and features, user-friendly BIOS, provides all of the power and most of the connectivity of the Rampage II Extreme
Carries the stigma of being a microATX motherboard, it’s not cheap (though the price is justified)
The Asus Rampage II Gene is easily one of the most powerful and feature-packed microATX motherboards on the market. It deserves to be a rampaging success. ...
