Maximus VI: ROG Armor

I heard somewhere that there weren't going to be any new X79 boards.

I'm just a soul who is up to no good.

Ow gad it looks great o.o

But I'm sure the price isn't going to be really good looking, probably gonna cost more than 300€..

Mhm, might have to move onto Haswell now Ive seen this.

 

 

While I woulden't buy one myself I do actually find the Impact board on the same page you linked more interesting, purely because its actually a ITX board with decent sound on it and decent features meaning with a GPU added it actually stands up to a fairly high spec ATX motherboard without having to use USB devices for things that wouldn't fit in the case. Finally someone has seen sense about ITX and done this.

That's unrelated. This is Z87.

 

It's come a long way from the original!

The original post  originally said something like, 'i hope they release these on the x79 platform'. He's obviously edited it.

I think armor looks SO AWESOME. Of course, it doesn't necessarily help with temperatures, but is looks so neat and tidy. I wish all Asus MBs had the option for armor. The Sabertooth is a great MB, but I can't stand the colorscheme. 

Current build: Antec P180, Asus P8Z68 Pro, Intel i5-2500k, Asus GTX 570 2GB, Patriot 16GB 1600MHz, Corsair HX 650W.

I agree. The armor on the Sabertooth looked awesome, but this is pretty fugly IMO.

Too bad they never made this for Z77, i'd buy this but sadly they will never again make stuff for Ivy bridge. ( X79 Ivy-E will get goodies tho )
