I used ASUS boards for years and have always had good luck with them.

Whent to Gigabyte for i7 and eventually a 760 .....

Best of luck H&R ... let us know the verdict ?

looks killer and great price as well. Splave spoke highly of it, so take that for what it's worth....a shit ton.

I'm bypassing this offering for the SR-2. Got the chips, and the RE3 would be a lateral move on a 920 from the 760.

Will be waiting on results. Really interested on what this can do with a 920.

Same here. 250+ bclk will pretty much sell me. lol, 6ghz uncore wouldn't hurt. :ohcrap:

DrNip 04-22-2010 03:42 AM

I'm looking for 275+ BCLK! :broomstick:

When you get it H&R could you snap some pics of the BIOS for us and post them?

I can't imagine what ASUS was thinking when they designed and shipped this product without the external LCD Poster ??? I mean come on, every ROG board to date had an LCD Poster!!! How you supposed to follow your boot, or debug when something don't go exactly right? No hexidecimal display? No LCD Poster?? Jeeez...

:D

They dont need the LCD poster they have ROG connect. maybe?

Splave 04-22-2010 04:00 AM

word, no more boot codes they tell you whats happening ftw.

ROG connect was epic for cpu-z, just have cpu-z and spam the valid key will upping with rog connect which doesnt tax the system

Got mixed feelings with ASUS mobos. Commandos have been good to me, but a crappy RE and POS P6T7 soured me for a while.

Knew it would sell out fast so I bought mine early. :clapping:

With the R3E, GTX 480 and a TPQ 1200 OC all on their way, I'm getting kind of giddy.

Now just have to figure out how to grease the wheels with the wife for a 160L dewar rental.....$150 + $45 rental + $25 delivery = a much better deal than lugging my dewars back and forth and getting overcharged for the hassle. Hope they can get it up the driveway. Problem is that I'll have a hard time ever sending it back........
