TechConnect Magazine - Asus X48 Republic of Gamers board pictured
Quote:
" Delayed until February or not, the Intel X48 chipset will be the pride and joy of the Penryn builder and since it is "high-end" it will get to be featured in a couple of motherboards built by the Republic of Gamers' team. With the X48 pretty much done and very similar to the X38 Asus' new boards are practically finished and you can see one of them below.
The new X48 boards will be named Rampage Formula (DDR2 memory and picture) and Rampage Extreme (DDR3 and no pics) and will be released next year, most likely in February so as to be ready for the new 3.2GHz, 1600 MHz FSB QX9770 CPU. Until then, contemplate the Rampage Formula and try to spot the few differences between it and the Maximus Formula."
---------------
I don't know the look of the Maximus very well but it's easy to see that the Rampage doesn't have NB water. I bet the Extreme does, like the Max Ext. Overall, the layout looks similar but I'm going by memory as I'm too lazy to look it up now.
