Another area that comes under the thermal properties in this board is the thermal radar. The thermal radara relies on 12 embedded hardware sensors which are strategically placed around the board to offer real-time thermal detection. The job of the sensors is to give detailed information on all components of the board including the relevant temperatures, fan speeds if applicable and voltages of each area if applicable.
This includes providing relevant details of the CPU, motherboard, VCore, VCCSA and much more including all memory channels too.
The software included into the AI Suite from Asus gives you full control over the way that the cooling functions on the board. You can choose to monitor the relevant data, change it via a manual control or to use the pre-definited built-in profiles giving you complete control over every aspect of the boards cooling.
Nice review. Too bad there is no z68 version of this board. The only negative thing is probably the fact that it will be hard to find a buyer for this mb once you decide to upgrade because this style is really not for everyone.
As you stated Asus are making quite a few boards, I agree that this board may not be for everyone, but the fact is that it is there if you require it, I am afraid that any of the top end boards that Asus produce are out of my price range, but if you can afford it and this is just what you require, then go for it. It all really depends on the end user, once again Andy nice review.
