    I guess you missed this part of my Sig. I own the PCI-e X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty, my point is that I could use the PCI-e slot that was used for the Asus sound-card, the new version does not have this slot now

    I would like to know hows the BCLK clocking on this board , my last RIIE was a lot of fun and good for unlocked cpus but for locked cpus i was limited at 217 BCLK on LN2 no matter how much tweaking i did, very bad BCLK clocking board , if that issue its resolved this will be my next board if not i will go with the next Classified that comes out as classified Rules high BCLK Clocking and no other board can touch it . I really like this board but thats my only concerned.

    Yes I know that, my point to the other guy was that on-board audio sucks IMHO and the ASUS Rampage Extreme & ASUS Rampage II Extreme did not have on-board audio .

    Yeah, I see what you mean, but I used my titanium creative card in top slot on my rampage II extreme since my waterblock lets me fit it....

    Im not "other guy" im Raiden please Respect Mr dctokyo

    Yes onboard audio sucks of course

    But Asus X-fi also sucks compared to auzentech and other good brands of sound cards, its better than onboard yeah so you got my point there as well

    Ps: i dont read signatures .

    I would have bougth this board but Asus you took to much time to release it in the market , why releasing p55 motherboads and no X58 why?????

    They are all waiting the launch date of the gulftown cpu to release their x58 next-gen mobo, that would make alot of sense. And not all company do like to give preview of their upcomming stuff.

    Yeah, This looks promising

    I've Owned Giga,Asus,DFI.

    And i Actually enjoy asus the most, not sayin they are the best, I just like them, most my boards have been Asus, maybe i got used to the bios and how it works? so this looks really interresting!

    Owned a DFI now since Summer, and i dont fully like, dont know why, thought i would, I was all hyped up for it, never had a DFI, and all fuzz about it when X58 came made me want it, but after a while having it, i say no..

    so really hope for this to come sooner than later , when do Gulf hit retail? probably then as all say, should we see this board on the shelfs too.

    Cheers!

    It should be released at the end of March. In regards to price, how much are you willing to pay for it.

    It depends on its performance.If it's really good,i could give up to 500$.
    But of course,i'll wait to read its reviews first,from what i have read it must be Asus flagship for the X58 chipset.It will show if it's that good.
