ASUS Rampage III Gene @ TweakTown

“This time on the bench is the Rampage III Gene. The RIIIG (as we will call it moving forward) is the little brother to the Rampage III Extreme. It is an X58 based Micro ATX board with some of the same features of the much larger RIIIE. You also get a few extras that are not found on the RIIIE; these extras seem geared exactly towards the LAN party crowd.”

“Foxconn H55MX-S is priced under the psychological threshold of $100. Naturally, it has but basic functionality and isn’t meant to be overclocked. At the same time, it has a few advantages you don’t normally find in products cheaper than a hundred bucks.”

What could Gigabyte possibly replace this motherboard with… but itself? Meet the Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD6, a special revision of the original P55-UD6 motherboard that adds next generation features to Gigabyte’s already double-stuffed flagship motherboard.”

ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 @ Benchmark Reviews

“The AMD 880G Northbridge and SB850 Southbridge are two of the latest bits of chipset silicon designed to bolster AMD’s position in the mainstream PC market. They were released about a month apart this Spring, as part of a full line of 800-series chips, and ASUS wasted no time putting them into production.”
