Odd that they didn't include a water cooling top. And that little fan for that daughter board is going to be loud I bet :(
-

Thanks :up: I see the mounting holes are standard ATX, but what dimensions is the board? Is it closer to E-ATX?
-
Lucky bugger. Put it through hell for us :)
-
Looks like another overpriced Asus board to me...
-
yeh, in the same way RE was overpriced....but kicked the sh1t out of everything else
imo the lack of pushpins alone is worth the money =]
i'm just looking at all these X58 boards and wondering how the hell i'm going to insulate them, and this is no exception.
-
I'm in love :rolleyes: :shock2: :worship:
-
Msrp: $439 :rolleyes:
I remember the good old days, way back in 2006 when a high end mobo only ran about $200.
-
only one pci slot and placed close to the second pci-e slot
so. how can install the sound card with SLI or crossfire ?
-
Buy a pci-e 1x sound card and install in upper slot above vgas, maybe?
-
Very nice buddy, enjoy :up:

The X58 heatsink will block the installation of sound cards like the pcie XFi Titanium, but it looks like a trivial mod to fix that. Also, the finned heatsink is only attached to the main heatpipe assembly with 2 screws, so it can be easily removed and replaced with something else if desired.
-
You can put a creative X-Fi in the lowest x16 port.
It fits and works.
Anyway i'm hoping to get my hands on this board very soon!

Don't forget that Swiftech have the block to fit the Maximus II Formula which use the same concept. It's a work between Asus and Swiftech so I assume it will also work on the R2E (just unscrew the finned part and screw the waterblock).
This is a motherboard I'm drooling the most of all but it's too bad I'm a bit strapped for cash right now.
-
Then what kind of block is this? i'm also looking for one.. i thought it came with it after i saw this pic.. but after looking at several reviews i noticed it was'nt shown in the box..so is this just a painted swiftech or a different brand? and where can i find BIOS's for this board if I were to get it? Asus needs to put it on there dam site

Ahh i just noticed that was the Rampage Extreme 1
CRAP i like that block and it's colors..
-
for some reason, and i can't exactly figure out why, this board seems a lot less attractive than RE.
-
Had the chance to buy a RIIE here in UK for a few days now, but put off by RE original's RAM compatibility. Or lack of.
Eyeing on EVGA's X58 solution now, seems like a solid board with great BIOS support reading Anand's, or maybe the Blood Rage depending on avalibility.
My 965 is sitting on the floor looking for a home :(
