Maximus VI Formula - where to buy

The Maximus VI Formula is the highest end board that I'd consider somewhat justifiable. The value-add features (802.11AC, better onboard ethernet, better onboard sound) are things that you'd actually have to pay more and put in add-in cards to acheive with a less expensive board. It also looks awesome, and since it's RoG the reliability should be top notch.

 

With that said, the option of buying a cheaper board, and getting add-in cards can make a lot of sense for frequent upgraders as well since you can carry those components forward to future builds and it's difficult to do the same thing with a motherboard.

Might be scheduled for 1AM or something.

I figure eATX should be made for a lot of add-in cards and mITX should have everything crammed/built in

Video is private cause Linus pre-films his videos, and publicizes his videos on certain dates.

Beautiful Motherboard indeed, and that thermal shield is extremely sturdy!
