The heatsinks look a little rediculous, and including IDE on a board with what looks like TEN SATA slots is stupid.
That being said, I like my Asus Maximus III Gene board. It had exactly all the features I was looking for and reasonably priced.

Benchers love IDE mate :) I want to have this one for a review...
This was really easy to spot from the post diagnostic LED and nice large Clear CMOS button...that you guys don't impliment...well the Clr CMOS is there but not so large.Quote:

with "CLR CMOS" or "POWER" on the PCB instead of these huge gimmicky plastic tops...
Debug LED with post codes instead of the simple lights
@beepbeep thanks for spotting that out, didnt notice it but then again dont really like all these "top shot gaming products" just gimmicks to sell a expensive board which has rubbish OC potential.. Looks nice though, 2 much like an asus board imo..
You mean like this rubbish looking biostar board? Seems like all rubbish boards will have good overclocking potential with sandybridge.Quote:

Who uses gold caps on the M4E and Fata1ty? no one but ASUS and Asrock.
You guys really don't share anything?
Yea Biostar mobo doing well, probabaly would have pushed the chip furthur if it was good enough. I think all you shoudl look for in you P67 mbo are looks seems like everyone is getting the same OCes except intel doing much better.

Anyone got one.... or brave enough to admit they got one?
I like the look, spec, price & layout & may get one hence the question.
I got an Extreme 6. That's the same than Fatality but more cheaper.
It's a really good card. No problem from my side. Sounds like a solid mobo :yepp:
They both near enough the same price here in UK £150 ~ £170, this is the sort of money I was going to spend on another board for work but the Asrock has digital PWM, more SATA ports, IDE port UEFI etc... on paper looks tastyQuote:

No UK stock available, Asrock recalled the lot & asked vendors not to sell them.
