ASUS Maximus Formula Motherboard Review

Tue 2008-01-22 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan

Bjorn3D has posted a review of the ASUS Maximus Formula motherboard.

Here’s what they had to say:

“The Maximus Formula's street price is currently in the $260.00 USD range putting it squarely in the mid range for X38 boards. While this price might be a deterrent to some of the more budget conscious buyers out there, we find it quite reasonable and given the end results well worth the price. The only real negatives that we could find with this product were the lack of eSATA connectors and the tall design of the passive cooling may cause issues with some of the lower profile, wide bodied coolers curently on the market.”

While this is a solid motherboard in every respect, it’s hard to recommend with X48 models right around the corner. Even if you don’t need the X48’s additional overclocking ability, X38 motherboards will surely drop in price.
