New Motherboards from ASUS

New Motherboards from ASUS

 We've all seen quite a force of motherboards released by ASUS at the end of last year, but they still have more from where that came from. Here's an Intel X58 chipset based microATX motherboard, the Rampage II Gene. It's quite likely the first Core i7 board in this form factor. Full functional I/O outputs, dual PEG slots and 6 DIMM slots - we think ASUS has pulled out the best of engineering to create this powerful little board.

 Those who haven't thought of investing in a Core i7 yet, how about a Core 2 based Intel P45 machine with the Maximus II Gene microATX motherboard?

 The ASUS M4A79 Deluxe is an AMD 790FX + SB750 platform motherboard that is AM3 ready, but still uses DDR2 memory. Features include an 8+2 phase power design, ASUS EPU and TurboV for easy overclocking settings.

 The M4A78T-E uses an AMD 790GX chipset and is both AM3 and DDR3 ready. Features include an 8+1 phase power design, ASUS EPU and Turbo Key for anytime pre-assigned overclocking.

 This M4N82 Deluxe motherboard may sound like a brand new board with an NVIDIA nForce 980a SLI chipset, but not if you consider that this chipset is actually a re-branded nForce 780a chipset. Sounds like 'good-old' NVIDIA marketing. Features of the board include, 3-way SLI, an 8+1 phase power design and TurboV for easy overclocking settings.
