Agreed earth. I know i don't need this motherboard but i'm going to be forced into buying it because it looks so god damn amazing.

ROG Extreme Engine Digi+
- 8-phase CPU power
- 3-phase Memory power
- ML Cap on CPU only

8 Phases only? Doesn't Gigabyte give you 24? Hmmm
 
Gorgeous

I don't think its that great... besides its an asus board, it will last about 3 days then go flakey.

:)
 
I've had many Asrock X58/P55 boards and never had a problem, with the OC limitation on Sandy Bridge actually it is a waste to go buy expensive boards as it will not help you get past the OC imit of around 5-5.2 Ghz irrespective of what board or cooling you use,

Thanks for the input. It all depends on how much the IV is. If it's 350 dollars i might look at something else. If it's 299.99 i can swallow it.

The 560 is only going to be able to do SLI so i don't need a board that can do 3 cards.
 
I'm waiting for a board with a decent amount of power phases, at a decent price. Ridiculous to spend more on the board than you did on the chip for a LGA1156, er I mean 1155 board. However anything with only 4 or 6 power phases and you'll be limited to under 5GHz.

Was just reading the UD7 review. 24 power phases seems like overkill
 
Why would Asus give the P67 Revolution board 16 power phase's and the Maximus IV 8? Am i missing something here?
