Very - pre order ATM

WOW!
Sweet! Thanks Veedaz!
When does it come out? I'm planning on a home built PC for my 16 birthday...
That is soo going to be in it
I was thinking of using the Rampage II, but if this is coming out, bye bye Rampage II!

Thanks a lot Veedaz!

You can pre order now (screen shot from OCs UK) you may find it cheeper in the US, I only use ASUS for my own builds and I will be ordering the Rampage III Extreme quite soon



329.99 GBP = 477.933 USD and worth it

BTW if you intend going water cooled you can get this >

I'm on it . Well.... Not quite yet actually.
Probably going to go with an Asus T3-M3N8200 casing. Nice and simple (and stylish).

Veedaz are you going to put 4 - ATI Radeon HD 5970's on that board?

Do you have a screen shot of the case ? as I'm not familiar with it.

I cant afford 4 5970s Clifford ... (truth is Steph would not let me spend that much )

Here is a screenshot of it:


Though, I'm going to do a total compatibility check before buying any of the two.

fire cat, that looks to small for a case that will fit the Mid-size ATX motherboard above. Is that case a Mini-ITX case that you posted? When matching cases and motherboards, keep an eye on the number of card slots that either of them support.

Mini-ITX is one card slot possibly two
Micro-ATX is no more than four
Standard-ATX is no more that seven
Extended-ATX is up to ten

While you can fit a smaller motherboard in the largest case. You must make sure the motherboard is not too large for the case.

That's what I meant by "checking for compatibility".
If that one is too small, I've got some other candidates lining up!b
