When we flip the board around we stumble into the processor area. We spot one 8-pin CPU power header located well (right to the heatsink), all ferrite core chokes and quality capacitors catch the eye. And obviously there's Socket 1366.
Also spot lower RDS MOSFETs and lower ESR solid capacitors are used here. Pure quality components are being used and nothing else. We see that the board design is completely passively cooled.
The boards phase design is as follows:
- eight phases on the CPU
- two phases for QPI/DRAM power
- two phases for PCH (x58)
Here you can see the eight-pin CPU power header a little more up-close.
Once we flip the board around we stumble into the DIMM slots, DDR3 of course. Up-to 24GB may be installed and the board will actually support 2200 MHz straight out of the BIOS (though overclocked). XMP profiles are detected properly and if desired activated optionally. Despite its small size you'll notice is that everything is just positioned really well. But let's zoom in a little.
ASUS Rampage IV Black Edition X79 review
ASUS recently released an update to their Rampage IV series motherboards with a black edition. It's big, fast and black and has tweaking written all over it. The board is just gorgeous and totally ...
ASUS Rampage IV Extreme review
The ROG team this time went wild, releasing a motherboard with all the features that last-gen motherboards should have such as USB 3.0 connectivity, Bluetooth, eSATA connectors, SATA 6.0Gbps, and 7.1 channel audio, but the real x-factor of the Rampage IV Extreme can only be found when we look at its overclocking features. Head on over to the next page where we'll discuss the X79 chipset, the respective ASUS model. Then will throw a decent photo-shoot and a benchmark suite at the products and get an indication what performance is like with the Intel Core i7-3960X (Sandy Bridge-E) and X79 Platform.
ASUS Rampage III Black Edition review
ASUS are launching the ASUS Rampage III Black Edition and it just has to be the most exclusive X58 motherboard we have ever had our hands on. Improved overclockability, black design (including a black colored BIOS). The spec-sheet might read pretty similar to last year's Rampage III Extreme, but there have been a few tweaks alright. The board now sports a quartet of PCIe x16 slots capable of supporting three-way SLI or four-way CrossFireX, support for 24GB DDR3 at speeds of up to 2,200MHz and then the fun begins, USB 3.0, SATA 6G, a ThunderBolt add-on card that integrates Xonar sound as well as BigFoot's Killer NPU.
ASUS Rampage III Gene review
Within that motto ASUS has it's own Gene series within the motherboard line up. Now if you put that on the X58 platform, it's called Rampage by ASUS. And then when this apocalyptic group of minions and demons called 'Republic of Gamers' aka ROG gets their hands on a product like this, you can expect improvements and extra overclock features.
