TY man. getting it now. I cant get too crazy since its for my work rig but the company is paying for it. I'm also getting a 3770k
I'm wondering if Charles had any luck on it. last thing I heard he had one on the way from asus but he hasnt posted in the thread since.
Fugger get your ass in here and tell us if that board makes you happy. I'm about to get one.

So why would anyone get this over the max gene v? It's exactly the same price and has more feature.

you are absolutely right but in my case its for my work office rig and I need something reliable that has a very small footprint. The dudes that are going to buy this are making tiny portable lan rigs or for recording music but also want a great bios for clocking. I admit I'm surprised its 200 bux. I think back in the clarksdale days h55n-usb3 itx board the attraction was that it was $150 and it had no coldbug with a simple hicookie mod with a conductive pen. I am buying this for my work rig I use on a daily basis and need something very reliable. and we can deduct it for taxes. It is the rolls royce of mini itx boards. I just wish asus made something along the lines of the maxV gene in mini itx and made it around $150 bux like gigabyte did in with that H55N-USB3 board. That board was legendary because it was the 1st mini itx board that clocked like crazy and it was cheap. I'm buying it because its for the company rig. But yeah maxV gene seems like a no brainer in comparison. if this thing clocked like a maxV gene and had the same bios and was priced under 150. then it would be the cheap thills oc choice. Gigabyte had it. they need to follow that design/price point of the H55N-USB3. If there was a revamped ivy mini itx like H55N-USB3 for 150 bux I would buy it in a second over this.

I couldn't resist this little board, and yes I was eying that Gene board as well. But I broke down and bought it last night along with a 3770K, GSkill 2400MHz 8GB, eVGA GTX 670 SC, and it will go into this new Lian Li PC-Q18B case. I am hoping for a dual water cooling setup CPU/GPU on there own rad if I have room..
Will start a build log for it so in a couple of days be on the look out..

hmmm... tech boner....?

yes.

mine should be here tomorrow. cant wait to show you guys if its any good.

Mine should be here today along with an SG05, unfortunately I probably won't have time to do anything until the weekend. I'll be testing on a 2600K as I'm still awaiting the 3570K.

[Sadhana]

Can't see the availability this mobo in Indonesia. I will try Asrock Z77E ITX when building a small pc with a little room for overclocking. And, yes, the Asrock have a wifi module too.

[quake6]

Asrock model also have mSATA option under the mbo, which ASUS doesn't have

[Lu(ky]

Anyone ran this board yet I am still waiting for some more parts to come in.. Wondering if the S/B when overclocking gets hot? And is there a eK block that fits it?
Thanks
