    Do you have a review of the RoG Hero upcoming? Also, any word as to when these will be in stock anywhere? Sites selling Haswell have everything else in stock but all the RoG boards are either down as preorder or overdue...

    Samples are pretty tight at the moment - I believe we were the first in the UK to get hold an M6E so I expect the same is true for the others. Hero is definitely on our wish list though as is the new micro-ATX TUF board.

    Not a bad offer! I certainly haven't seen any other UK based reviews of it. If samples are that tight, I wonder if actual stock is equally tight / low.

    Maybe for a change you can test one of the midrage Asus Z87 boards too.
    My god, they're not making it easy are they?
    Z87
    Z87A
    Z87C
    Z87K
    Z87WS
    Z87Pro
    Z87plus
    Z87Mplus
    Z87 deluxe
    Z87 deluxe/dual
    Z87expert
    Gryphon Z87
    Sabertooth Z87

    And that's without the Maximusses


    Hmmm, the 1150 boards aren't even selectable on the Asus website yet ;-) Only visible through direct search.

    between this Asus RoG motherboard and the Intel one, I would rather have the Intel. It must be a lot cheaper and and the difference in performance is not far from this Maximus.

    I thought Intel announced they were getting out of producing motherboards back with IB or even SB...or is this just a reference design?

    You have confused ROG and ASRocks boards.

    Would love to see reviews of both, especially a Gryphon with the Armour (or Armor) on. :D

    BTW, lovely review on the MVIE!
