Bjorn3D posted a review on the ASUS Maximus V Formula



ASUS and ROG have become synonymous with high end gaming and overclocking enthusiasts. This has come from a lot of marketing activities surrounding overclocking events and gaming sponsorships to show what these models are truly capable of. We have seen a huge amount of ROG boards over our time viewing and using hardware, and we can say that when it comes to the high-end, it’s very hard to beat (or even match) the ROG lineup.

We had just recently checked out the Maximus V Gene board which is the mATX version of the ROG gaming lineup boards. At the time that was the only ROG offering for Z77, and rumors abounded of a Formula or even an Extreme variant coming to market. Well we can now say that both rumors are true, as we have both boards for review at our labs.

The Maximus V Formula has some very special features that take it above and beyond what the Gene offered. Some of those features include a completely new SupremeFX offering in the SupremeFX IV, integrated WiFi and even Fusion Thermo VRM cooling to allow for more than capable overclocking headroom. All of this plus more comes together to make for a serious contender for a top gaming board.
