Hey friends.
Gosh,I had pure only board pictures when I built this PC but lost them somehow ,so for now these are the pics.
Introducing the magnificent Asus Rampage V Extreme.
Compared to like most recent/newest boards,many don't EVEN have built futures that this board have,which seems odd, this board now is probably worth max 100 $, and itt has future that outperform boards in 400-500 $ price range.
Ok lets compare:
1. tons of PCI-E slots, most newer boards only come with 2 max 3.
2.Tons of SATA ports, well as you know in newer boards with AM5 or Z690/Z790 they cut to 4 ports max.
3.Q-Post debug...even boards for 300-400 $ range don't have one.
4. 8 DIMM slots, okay 4 is a standard now,this is X99.
5. START/STOP button, as I can remember Asus implements it only on Formula/Extreme boards.
6. 12 USB ports, most newer motherboards implement 6 (midrange boards), only like high end boards above 1500 $ have like 8-10 ports.
Tte rest of the futures board has,I mean I could write from experience a book, how good this board is.
The downside well just one nvme slot,which I don't even care since I use this PC only for playing older titles,and regular SSD does the job fine.
