Nice!

would love to know if this board already has the new X58 revision or still the old one plz. This board is on my wishlist

as always, looking forward for your test...

Awesome Sauce!

Doesn't appear to carry over the 16+2 phase power arrangement of it's larger sibling :confused:

Nice lookin package for being so compact

I really want this board! I hate waiting!

ive been waiting for this! thanks for all the hard work :up:

That board looks nice. I think I see a portable LAN gaming system in my hands soon...

I thought I read somewhere... or maybe I guessimated based on the Press release of Asus's last board and the date it hit shelves, but I was hoping it would be early March... Now I'm not sure :(

I wish they would put the 4x pci-e at the top and remove the pci slot so you can have sli and a sound card....Who needs a pci slot anymore?:D

Great board! Any ETA yet for Europe??

Gr Yil

I wonder if this or the DFI JR will be the better overall board.

LLLLEEEGGAACCCYYYY!!!! FTW!

nice

I wonder if it can beat DFi JR... (my opinion, it cant.. neither with price or performace..). Tough, its nice to have some options when choosing high performace mATX mobo.. now only sized down eVGA and Bloodrage. :D

This is really nice... Like it..
