Some rather high numbers in the power consumption test but this is to be expected from a X79 system, especially when overclocked to these limits.

ALso I think their bioses are getting better. those preoverclocked settings are genius and a huge lifesaver for less experienced users.
great design, still very expensive, but they seem to be targeting ASUS with these boards IMO. getting a good rep now.
where’s the 2nd 8-pin power connector? typo?
Hi Sean, Thanks for pointing that out i’ve amended the review accordingly.
Cheers 🙂
