As random stated when is it going to be here in the US? Right now reviewers have the boards here. And, in UK there are two online sites that are taking pre-orders, and claim will deliver on those orders by Friday 25th july.

So, since X58 is around the corner why is this not available right now today?

I know that Asus wants the glory of lay claim to be the undisputed last best mb of 775-LGA socket...but they should at least have shipped these out to the state in advance of giving them to reviewers.

To have to purchase one of these boards from the UK, is pretty misable...considering the current dollar value in this horrible bush regime.

It's all very good but when is this board for sale? X48 is already old enough and I know X58 is just round the corner. I think I will wait for the X58 now as the reviews of the new Intel CPU look great and I hear it will have SLi and Xfire support!

Whee, ultra highend MB! Oh wait, I can't fit Crossfire and a decent RAID card in it because the slot config is retarded. NEXT!

Who the hell needs PCI slots anymore? Need more x4/x8/x16s!

Pinacle is good word here. X48 wasn't supposed to be much Ultie, then in Winter, X48 Ultimate 64 Game Scores reached parity with old,ikie,xp.

With ROG main, Core has been upped to new High frequency, So when returning to reality of actual speed used, Crosstalk/Chatter becomes more mute.Ultie Likes That.

This is strengthened by fact Audio sub system has been relieved of duty. Its' main purpose: to keep audio card running, something now that leaves unboard audio weak & once dead Nowadays, always dead. So Good ridence.Less is More, sometimes.

Yet, Is This Ulties' Rider? No, X58 will have to suffer Ultie Test & maybe get Ultie up on its knee knobs.

SmokeStack Lighting in Compact Industrial Setting. Going Down To Rosedale, Got My Ultie rydra by My Side. Rose is colour of glasses to see this ROG Mainboard thru. Its' BEST There is.Ultie Just Needs More.

Ultie the Merciless.
