Asus Rampage Extreme Motherboard

[MicroCraftTV]

Baddest mother... board

[ZombieKillzoneOps]

i am poor as fuck so is this a good choice for gaming ?

[FireVortex720]

@ZombieKillzoneOps go with the newer ASUS rampage IV extreme

[1BYEBYE1]

@ZombieKillzoneOps dude this is from 2008, you need to upgrade lol

[askloglog]

i wish they still had this mobo, then i could continue using my q6600 with newer gpu's in SLI which would still be a BOSS gaming system

[mozdonny]

it says extreme

[JayRulenBaby]

[HeadouCompany]

@JayRulenBaby M3A79Acid-Pro

[JayRulenBaby]

@HeadouCompany thanks bro but i got the Asus P5B Deluxe mobo ^^

[Atomicfartsman]

Damn that is one hell of a board

[NickBlackDIN]

can it hold my Pentium 100mhz socket 7 processor? lol jks jks

[jczz1234z]

Damn I'm in need of this board :(

[jczz1234z]

Hi anyone here happen to be selling or know someone who is selling an asus rampage extreme lga775 x48. Been looking for this motherboard for a while.

thanks

[legitimatemind]

The ultimate gaming/overclocking platform. The phrase that is restated every few months...

[MYMAnarchy]

@legitimatemind Not that fast, for me it's about 1 year or more

[legitimatemind]

@MYMAnarchy Wasn't talking about you... 0.-

[MYMAnarchy]

@legitimatemind I know lol :D

[thompson515]

my friend just sold me this motherboard and the 4870x2 and a TRUE Black CPU cooler for 200 dollars. needles to say he is a very nice friend

[HGTtec]

how do i enter the bios? like seriously!

[118Cheeseoid]

@HGTtec

When you switch on your pc, it will say "press F2 to enter bios", either that or the delete key. It depends.

[evrythingelswastaken]

I have that desk in my room!

[TrevorMuth]

got it :) and i have to say is DAMN

[MYMAnarchy]

Here's how I configure a system with this FUCKING AWESOME MOBO (even this is a old X48 ones, I still gonna get it)

- Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 Quad-Core 3.0 GHz @ 4.4

- 4 x 2 Gb DDR3 1600 MHz Dual Channel Corsair Dominator GT + AirFlow

- 2x ATI Radeon HD4850 1Gb GDDR3 (DX 10.1 man, and of course still gonna run today games with ease) Or if you want, 2x ATI Radeon HD5770 1Gb GDDR5

- 2x 1Tb WD Caviar Black SATA2 HDD 7200 rpm

[sigurd731]

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition is it better then I7,I am only going to game or i5 ?

[InitialDirt]

this motherboard is OLLLDDD

[lomanad]

Why would it be old freak, for what are you using your pc ? To run 5 monitors and 5 programs at a time ?

[InitialDirt]

theres bettter ones now true? this one is 1 years old, corei7 wasnt even out yet.

[AmH032uTuBe]

It's not that old, and frankly it still kicks ass!

[coletrain8666]

it may be old but it still one of the best out there for socket 775 if you want crossfire rather than SLI.

This motherboard and the XFX 790i GREAT MOTHERBOARDS for 775

[puelladeluxe]

would you recommend buying this one, because im not that into overclocking. of course i OC my Q9550 and my ATI 5970 but not like fuckin crazy. i would buy 8 gigs DDR3 if i bought this. do you think it'll dominate games like crysis with my setup?

like i said the Ati 5970

Intel Q9550(OC'd to 3.2GHz)

and the 8 gigs DDR3 Ram

[Fitality101]

@puelladeluxe hey how much is that price of that cpu ur getting?

[puelladeluxe]

i paid like 220€

[Fitality101]

can u give me a link of were i can buy it? :D

[gamerjoe22]

Google it

[AmH032uTuBe]

Yeh, since the Formula only has DDR2.

I'd say go for this or a P55 for what you use.

I'd say this: Rampage Extreme

or a P7P55D Deluxe.

Have a look and a good think about it.

[coletrain8666]

i have the q9550 and i've overclocked it to 3.8Ghz on the xfx 790i motherboard your setup will kill crysis no problem mate

[Fitality101]

what would be the BEST cpu combo with this board?

[HomeEngineer]

lot of accessories but no crossfire bridge

[bashbanger]

yer they will come with ur graphics card.

[FantasySteel]

what do you think how much could I overclock my Intel 2 quad core 2,4 ghz? =D I'm definetly buying this board^^

[Fitality101]

@FantasySteel LOL as much as u want man this board is bad ass

[MrYoDo]

Today I received one of these boards. I paid 259 dollars (I live in Argentina) but they are extremely difficult to find.

[Fitality101]

@MrYoDo PLEASE TELL ME WERE U BOUGHT IT I REALLY WANT THIS IV BEEN SEARCHING FOR 2 DAYS NON STOP, IM GOING CRAZY, PLEASE TELL ME!!!!!

[shotta2545]

there a site i could download this review in better quality?

[FatFuckRecherche]

Where do i get this board do they still sell it new?

[wilkes2333]

hi im on a computer course. this motherboard is cool and i wish i had the cash to buy it lol

[xXxmidgexXx]

btx motherboards are very rare

[TrebbinTV]

174 € in germany too

[SonicKavousi]

In Greece this motherboard costs 290 Euro

[lapulapu12345]

wow!!!!!!!!! very very coool yeah

[jakentos]

Very Very NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!

In holland the price is 174 euro's like 230 dollars!!!!!!

[TheGeek1028]

moar liek STFU amiright?

Asus is FTW.

[BabakMagic1]

im going to buy XFX Radeon HD4890 1GB DDR5 PCIE 2.0 x16 BUT i got an old motehrboard and it suucks , so can u guys tell em what motherboard i should buy and not more than 400$ so please reply fast !!!! and btw tell me the name of the ,motherboard and the price..

tell me if XFX Radeon HD4890 1GB DDR5 is a good choice or bad and if its a bad choice tell me what its better than this tyvm for helping...

replay fast cuz i really need tyvm tyvm and tyvm !!!

[jakentos]

Get this Mobo and an 5870!, With a Q9550 and 4GB ddr3 1600MHZ, overclock it and It's one of the best computers in the world!(not the best, but really bang for buck!)

[BabakMagic1]

i already chosed my pc and i will purchase it in 5 days , the GPU is Saphire Radeon HD5870 , cpu is core i7 860 and ect....so tyvm for helping but i will buy mine soon

[philipejc2]

that's true...... i already got this board with a q9550 and 4gb ddr3 1600mhz.. lol... im waiting for my next salary to buy a video card.

[Rp707]

neckbeards unite!

[necesaryevil512]

Awsome motherboard i want to buy it...but does it support SLI or Crossfire and how does the second card scale is it 16x, 8x, 4x or 1x

[dryice1337]

According to tigerdirect "two ATI CrossFireX or up to 3 NVIDIA SLI graphics cards"

[machikbart]

so it cant run a intel core 2 quad Q6600 P35 ? :(

[acidburn675]

Yes it can this is a Socket 775 the Q6600 is also a Socket 775

[uut0]

q6600 can run on a p35 i have it myself :D

[pirtea]

x48 it can run a core 2 quad q6600

p35 is a chipset

[acidburn675]

Did you not watch the video? =P This Motherboard ONLY does ATI Crossfire X you can use a Nvidia card with it but you will NOT be able to do SLI

[dryice1337]

The website says it supports sli, so which is right?

[acidburn675]

That is the X58 Motherboard. This Board in the video is the X48 which is a older model.

[hahaha10001]

the x58 chipset supports SLI and cfx.

even the EVGA X58 classified does.

[dkz0sk8ter]

What should i go for. A XFX 790i ultra sli, and two XFX 285 GTX's (Black Edition), or Asus Rampage Extreme, and one EVGA 295 GTX (Co-op Edition)

Thank you, Martin.

[acidburn675]

Depends on what games you are playing & how much your willing to spend :] but the 2nd choice would OWN!! =P Co-op edition is very nice card also runs very cool :]

[dkz0sk8ter]

Aight sounds good. Thanks bro :)

[oobershnooze]

DO NOT build a multi GPU system if you DO NOT HAVE TO, SLI has very poor scaling capabilities. One single powerful GPU is better than 2 that are worse. And 1 card will leave the option to upgrade to multi GPU in the future when it is more efficent.

[corbono35]

Do not upgrade your gpu just yet the 300 series is around the corner, it would be a waste.

Oh if your going to get an X48 go with Ati for crossfire

[ashchetum]

This board is too awesome for my standers....

hmm... I'm used to building computers out of old parts and most of those computers are slow enough for the cpu to be passive, and no north/southbridge heatsinks in sight....

[rish420chronic]

has anyone tried the supreme fx ii? just wondering how good it was :)

[acidburn675]

I have it ^_^ it's a decent card not as good as the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium It's half of that not to bad though.

[rish420chronic]

thanks alot for the reply man. i can afford the x-fi titanium but if the motherdboard comes with a sound card i dont know if there is a point in buying it will i really see that much of a difference i know nothing about soundcards

[Sawnez]

Ohh, And what is smarter this one or the p5q deluxe?

[Sawnez]

Does this board work well with a i7 920? and does it need Water/liqued cooling or is my coolermaster v8 enof?

[cords111]

Doesn't work at all, you're thinking of the rampage II extreme. This one's a bit older.

[TheBlitz1]

The core i7 is 1366 socket, this is a 755 socket.

No system needs liquid cooling, that's a waste of time, anyone who has made a high end water cooling system AND a high end AIR cooled system will tell you the ability to gain performance rests with the quality of the motherboard (its complexity and power regulation); liquid cooling or air cooling come secondary in defining system performance and overclocking capability.

[Hardscript]

no it completely fails with the i7 in general it hates it soo fucking much it wont even run a i7.... i7= 1366 socket

core 2= 775

[Oreomeister]

He says "it's made specifically for overclockers, if you want to game obviously you could though"....Isn't the whole POINT of overclocking, generally, and mostly used to increase gaming performance? I figured overclocking and gaming pretty much go hand in hand.

[foxxaw]

i have my q6600 on my asus p5q pro oc to 3ghz and 1500fsb and it very powerful plus the hd 4850 oc 700/1170 with zalman gv 1000 an a 22" lg flatron and i can play all the games on max settings,why the f*** do i need a 300 euros motherboard

[cheesejimsyclean]

is it compatible with ATi Graphics cards?

[Oreomeister]

It compatible with nvidia, ATI, whichever.

[TheBlitz1]

wtf lol

[15killa16]

10:14 nice job :D lol

[PoRtSpAwN]

is this better than asus rampage formula?

[Ryan10206]

No... the difference is the formula is ddr2 memory and air cooled. the extreme is ddr3 and comes with watercooling on the northbridge and southbridge

[TheBlitz1]

YES, it is infinitely better than the formula because of the 16 phase power regulation and the amount of copper that is attached to the mosfet, northbridge, and southbridge.

[TheBlitz1]

hahahahah!

[paynebabes123]

This board was sick

[kingdong4]

This baby is so huge it hurt my head listening to all these specs.

[mickyrockero]

disculpa no tendrás versión en castellano aunque sea con subtitulo

[iOWNu1111]

BLACK SLUT FTW 14:12 !

[semabutr]

My spec: Core2Duo E6700, P5KPL, XFX GTX285, and 2gb of rams. Would upgrading my mainboard to this one helps boost my pc's performance tremendously? Or should I just go for cheaper mainboard let's say..P5Q Deluxe which is still DDR2 platform and upgrade my cpu to Q9650 instead. I don't have enough cash for upgrading everything to core i7, so it's not an option.

Thank you

[poligallito]

hey, stick with the P5Q, its better for the money, and Q9650 is too expensive, best bang for the money would be Q9550 and you can overclock it to 3.0GHz.

[kingdong4]

so get a real cpu like amd.

[EBA170]

does this support sli?

[ibnul7]

NO SHIT

[EBA170]

i like how ur rong, it doesnt. i looked on the asus website and its crossfire support

[TakeMeDown2FunkyT0wn]

Ehhrr..... It's an Intel X48 chipset so it supports both.

[EBA170]

ooo, ok, what ev. but i looked and it said ati crossfire technology but whatever, im get the the 790i ftw

[TakeMeDown2FunkyT0wn]

That's a pretty bad choice at the moment. You should consider an X58. Your paying the same money for a slower setup when you can have an i7 setup.

[EBA170]

ya thats true, ive been told that. i ur right i was thinking bout that and if i got the q9550 and that board anew ddr3 ram itll cost a litle less then the core i7, ya imma do that. thinking about the asus p6t deluxe v2 or the evga x58 board which is $20 more but can have 3 way sli so i think imma go with the evga x58 board. idk what do u think?

[TakeMeDown2FunkyT0wn]

definitly upgrade to X58. they say the EVGA is pretty good. Ive got the rampage 2 myself. if you wanna know something, just ask and i'll send you any results. The 1st time I booted my new system it was so much faster then my last setup (750i, E8400 and 4GB 1066MHz RAM). The specs are on my profile of my current rig.

[NLSTYLE]

Can you use this board stable at 8GB@1600Mhz? I have this board with 4GB@1600MHz with Intel Extreme Memory (X.M.P. Support), I don't want to waste my money on memory that I can't use at the right speed.

[TakeMeDown2FunkyT0wn]

Don't you mean the Rampage II Extreme with the DDR3 memory? This is the X48, Rampage II has X58 with socket 1366.

[idog1997]

slecht oer slecht

[beducorn]

i think people get to involved in these things and get carried away and talk rubbish

[ThomasTech334]

I was going to get this, but then i got the asus p5n-d, becuase usb 3.0 and pci-e 3.0 come out in about a year and a half or so..im just planning on that..

[tombmxcrowley]

:/ y as your not going to get any incrase graphics wise as modern gpu dont even use all the bandwidth, you can run a gtx 260 on x8 and not bottleneck it. as to usb 3.0 greater speed ok great but eSATA is already in use.

[ThomasTech334]

the P5N-D uses both pci-e slots at x16 when in sli..its really nice and alot cheaper..i recently decided to build a hackintosh PC but will still build a new system when pci-e 3.0 comes out..thats just my opinion though..lol

[tombmxcrowley]

no the P5N-d has pci-e x16 but wont use anywere near the bandwidth that 16x provides so pic-e 3 is not need nor will give perfromance gains as i said lol.

[kimyo1973]

you have to pay for 64 bit

[simracr94]

something i will never get why asus has a power managment for your ethernet cable, ethernet cables use almost no power

[rikijamie]

Im lost now, I mean that graphics RAM dosent count towards the 32 os limit. You can have 3gb RAM and 512mb of graphics ram and thats what you have, Graphical RAM is totally different

[Nightcover]

Your gfx ram does count for the 4gb limit with x86 OS

So does harddrive cache.

[mallarmist]

lol, reading the comments below here is quite funny.. : )

32bit os has a memory limitation of 4GB, yes.

but the graphics card's memory counts too !

So that is, if u have 4GB of RAM and a graphics card with 512MB, you'll get 3.5GB, and so on. So yeah. The easy way to figure out how much memory you'll get is 4GB - the amount of memory the Graphics card.

[rikijamie]

I believe you might be wrong there. Normal RAM is DDR graphics cards are GDDR. Technically the same thing design wise and the way it works. However they do not count as the same thing. If you have 3gb of RAM and 512mb of Graphics Ram..thats exactly what you have. The PC uses it a completely different way. I know I have 3gb Ram and 512mb graphics and thats exactly how it works. And yes i use 64bit OS

[mallarmist]

wtf u on about? if u have 3GB ram plus 512MB on the graphics card, ur still under 4GB wich is the limit for 32 bit OS.

[hbh12]

VERY! VERY! VERY! EXPENSIVE!

[novablaze]

ARgh that means i have to buy new window CD with 64bits.. but thanks for the info :D

[Za7a7aZ]

I ve got 16 of these motherboards parallel connected for my doomsday calculation. lol

[scaredkiddie]

rofl

[novablaze]

hey i kinda have a problem, i have this Mobo and 6Gb of DDR3 ram, but the windows detect it as only 33-- Mb :s, is it becoz of the window? (vista 32bit) or the Cpu (e6750 ) thanks

[SukhoiSu37Terminator]

Windows 32-bit only recognizes up to 3GB of RAM.

[Kamalles]

I thought they fixed that in vista service pack 1?

[kiashadowwave]

no, you need windows XP 64 bit.

[GmanProductionz1337]

My comp has 4GB of ram and its 32Bit

[SukhoiSu37Terminator]

Is all 4GB recognized. There's a difference between having 4GB and 4GB being recognized.

[GmanProductionz1337]

Yes, BIOS reads 4GB, System details read 4GB

[AmH032uTuBe]

no they're saying Windows can only 'READ' 3GB of ityou could have 8GB but it'd only read 3GB...

[colindecon]

vista 32 sp1 sees all of my 4gbram

[NLSTYLE]

It sees it but Vista isn't using it.

[nguyennguyenkn]

but the software use it

[Chruzha]

Vista 32 bit only reads 3 gb - 3.3 gb

to make use of all the ram, get a 64 bit version.

[SVTFilms]

is there anyway you could like update to 64 bit?

[Chruzha]

Yes, but that costs you.

[CrdBrdProjects]

0:10 thats what she said.

[royaltissue]

nice...

with a quad core unlocked processer

[luisronaldofigo]

can somebody tell me what memory ram is good for these cause most ddr3 say perfect for i7 etc but im going for a q9650 :S

[GF8800gtx9999]

no prob go for some of the i7 rams i have a striker2 extrem and it works great with 1600mhz ddr3 ram :)

[luisronaldofigo]

so the only thing i need to look when looking for rams is tha speed (mhZ) these is my first pc build

[masbrastix]

No, you can look for the memory channel. The Core i7 needs DDR3 Triple Channel, while the Core 2 processors need DDR3 Dual Channel. The MHz only defines operating speeds.

[luisronaldofigo]

these or the striker?

[GF8800gtx9999]

it depends on your gpu...this 2 mbs have diffrent chipsets: the rampage and intel chipset the striker have a nvidia chipset......so for nvidia gpu the striker for ati/amd cards the rampage :)

[luisronaldofigo]

thanks for the replies im going nvidia so stiker it is :)

[haydanUK]

not the lastest dude...wtf.... thought it was x58

[SukhoiSu37Terminator]

This was before the X58.

[Fantasticboy200]

awsome board it real cool

[divwiz2005]

awsome board

[nogalesenlinea]

sin duda la mejor motherboard del mercado!!!!!!!!

[llAkuTsUll]

"La PEOR placa madre que jamás haya tenido"

ajajaja! deberían fijarse bien a la hora de la traducción.

[lordneno]

" cantidades ridiculas de overclockinG" xDD el que doblo esto trabaja para gygabyte por lo menos xDDD

[bez2134]

yes i have one very good

[BloodxGusher]

I did not understand 75% of what was just said. Lol I need to do more research on comps and parts. Anyone know a site or somewhere for this?

[mayers000]

theres tons of sites, to many to list, just put want u want to know into google

that always works lol

[BloodxGusher]

Ok cool thanks.

[keanelast]

wooow no maa esta si es una verdadera motherboard, tien absolutamente todo, esta muy completa y esta muy atractiva en pocas plabras pienso que es la mejor ahhhhh! yo la quiero!!!!, gracias por la traduccion :) saludos

[sk8erbballkid]

is that board better than the EVGA nforce 790i Ultra SLI?

[mayers000]

depends on whether ur going sli or crossfire

[sk8erbballkid]

i just want 2 Nvidia GTX 295, so i think SLI

[claireglory]

oh yeah gotta love technology but I really hate watching those "wires/cables"

I hope the next generations of PC's are all wireless.

I hope technology will advance more before I die LOL!

[SpectreFatal1ty]

i wouldnt hope for all wireless since more could go wrong with it.
