Nice board and nice review Frank, but you may want to include the Striker II Extreme in the comparison motherboard section, not only in the graphs

Seriously, big credit goes out to King for maintaining this list. He puts a lot of work into this thing and he deserves our thanks! - Verran

Thank you SO much for this detailed and extremely balanced and fair review. To my knowledge, this is the first review of the motherboard. I now must decide between this and an ASUS Rampage Extreme. I will deeply appriciate any recommendations.
Again, thank you for your time and effort on our behalf.

The Asus Rampage extreme is ridiculously overpriced. I would just stick with the 790i FTW.Thank you SO much for this detailed and extremely balanced and fair review.
