speedywrx Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 Can anyone tell me if you can pop out the "Republic of Gamers" cover on this motherboard? Shown here: http://www.overclockersclub.com/siteimages/articles/asus_rog_maximus_ix_formula/21.jpg I'd like to create my own custom cover to replace this. Thanks.

ir_cow Posted March 6, 2017 Posted March 6, 2017 if its like the rest of Asus lineup than no you can't "pop" it off. it unscrews from the back but it looks like this model has the whole plastic heatsink thing going on across the whole area. So it doesn't look like it will be easy on this model. It kinda looks like the VRM heatsinks are not connector to the plastic area so it may be just a few screws and the whole section comes off leaving the VRM heatsinks.

ccokeman Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 The Hybrid VRM cooler no but the I/O cover should come off easily and allow you to "print" your own with a 3D printer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedywrx Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 Thanks for the replies. I may go with the ASUS Maximus IX Apex then, since it does have removable covers over the LEDs to make some custom ones. Too bad for only the 2 slots for RAM though. I wish there was an Apex with 4 slots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
