Yes believe me I know what you talking about and I pretty much dislike ASUS as well and would not touch it with a 6' long stick but after talking to Slavinius I thought I would check it out. BTW: its out f stock already!

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.

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........

I have the Asus Premium and only because of the Sata 3 on it. Went to put a mild overclock on this 960 and the BIOS was just poorly put together. As I remember correctly my P5B Deluxe was just the same. Can't beat EVGA's BIOS. Best in the business.

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.

I'm looking for 275+ BCLK!

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