Asus has created what is sure to be the flagship motherboard for the P67 lineup, the Maximus IV Extreme.
I decided to conduct both the unboxing and review/benchmarks in this single video, so please enjoy!

Nice video mate! Am really thinking about getting one of theses!

[SirJamesD]

Thank you very much!
The 48K I got in Vantage using two GTX 580s is a big testament to this board and the processor...that's nearly a 20% increase over my X58/980X score

Nice result am so happy with my 2600K 1.36v 5Ghz but the Msi board isnt the best for memory clocking!

I sure wish that mobo was around when I bought my deluxe..........Thanks for the overview.

Im waiting for this mobo currently. Got 2600k already and doing a hard work keeping myself on hold from not buying UD7.-)))
Nice vid mate Im your subscriber actually for quite a while.

Were you subbed back when I had the Antec 1200 and was extremely camera shy?

euh that should not happen, Physx left on somewhere ? we got good benchign performance in 01 and 03
dunno bout it being better in Vantage than a GT...

[SirJamesD]

PhysX was left on before...could me a few things: the processor was at 4.6GHz instead of the 4.4 the 980X had, and the updated Nvidia drivers have made a difference

[Leeghoofd]

Normally GT will still be king clock for clcok in AM3/05/06 and Vantage... but having a SB at 5.2 and beyond is fun... and cheap compared to 1366

[SirJamesD]

So long as you don't have your VCore jacked 24/7...I feel bad for people who will have serious CPU problems soon just because the temps are under control now
