Will these provide the gold standard for Intel Haswell based builds?
How big is the premium motherboard market? It can't be worth one manufacture to release different brands into this segment and then have to compete with other brands premium boards. Seems like a pointless idea.
Although, does look damn nice. Bling
I'll agree, they do look good. Never a fan of gold, but I do like this board
It looks awwwesome. And expensive.
I can not wait to see some real Haswell tests and performance.
What PC case is that?
Looks like a cooler master 690 IIQuote:

Not entirely convinced by the shininess of this board, although it does look ... distinctive.
One thing that's puzzled me is why board makers bother with this kind of "bling". Even if you've got a windowed case then it's not as if the average PC's innards are particularly pretty.
If Asus can do a non-bling edition then I'll be tempted.
I'd love to see that as a model name :)Quote:
