Get the newest!!

http://www.asus.com/us/Mo...-RAMPAGE-V-EDITION-10/

http://www.asus.com/us/Mo.../RAMPAGE_V_EXTREMEU31/

Has the latest offerings other new boards have with u.2 ports that yours dont.. encase you want a u.2 nvme drive later on like a new Intel 750 ssd or newer drive later.

Has newer USB 3.1 type c connectors you may need down the road.

Better with wi-fi if you need it with 5ghz.

Way better built in sound with built in discrete amps for head phones and 10 seperate built in dacs and it's a good brand dac in sabre.

Safe slots for all pcie slots. Metal casing on the pcie slots to help strengthen them so heavy cards won't damage it.

New cpu install bracket so the next guy that installs your cpu won't bend any pins so your memory is good! Haha tell him to use it!

Many more as well too much to list but yeah the rgb lighting is great!

Basicly a super tweaked no holds bared newest version of your board with all the extras and the added front panel dac for your headphones either volume control nob.

If the option was mine no second thoughts.. it would be the newest rampage.

He'll if I could return my memory still I'd exchange my new 6700k and z170 board and grab a 6850k and that board and 4 dimms of some ram and smile.

Sucks Im still in the 30 day window to return my cpu and board.. though I did just overclock my cpu to 4.8ghz last night but still more then 4 cores cpu would bench higher hehe.



umm.... this what i have... RAMPAGE V EXTREME/U3.1 . so no point on getting the rampage v extreme 10?


No I'm saying get the newest one the rampage V edition 10!



I ordered this.

still latest right? :/ sorry :(


Yup that's it!

Even has anothwr cool feature you may need down the road. You can upgrade the bios in the mb even if you don't have a cpu installed or graphics card in there. Slap the upgrade on a USB flash drive and plug it into the USB header and hit a button on the i/o plate and it will flash the bios!

Convenient if you go to install a cpu that's newer and the old bios won't support it. So insted of installing an old cpu to flash it you just flash the bios first.

You should really be asking for money back on the motherboard they sold you that was defective - look into your consumer protection laws, that is not your cost to cover. Very shady business, I would be pursuing legal means to recover my money if they were doing that to me... Not sure why you are okay with expending more money on something you had nothing to do with, you basically paid to correct their issue.

i am such a weak existent...that is my issue.... i always take the hard way.... they don't have any refund option and they are willing to replace the mobo....so i can't really ask for my money back if they are going to fix the issue by replacing the mobo...right?

Correct I would think. There gona fix it by replacing it with the same rma'd board. He's prob out of the 30 day return window for a flat out refund on the board.. or whatever there policy is.

He's gona take the new board they get back and sell it. Replacing it with the other board he buys.

Granted it would of been a nice thing and the first option the shop should of done which was replace it with another board in house and they could handle the rma (resell the rma'd board off to another future customer) for less hassle to him.

It's a different situation though cause moknowsbest wants a totally different mb.
