Finally Asus is using the 90° SATA connectors. I've always been a fan but my usable SATA ports (2 blocked due to GPU) are quickly filling up. Hopefully they bring that feature to all their new boards. Also, the power management circuitry looks epic on that board.

Finally? When did you last look at a Asus board. x38 and up uses them at right angles. However the buget boards for p45 have standard ones, where as only the premium boards for p45 have right angles.

They've not added that yet, that bit doesn't get added on these initial reference boards.

Believe me, they'll be on it by launch day.
