^ok, but it's annoying asus uses asrock to flame gigabyte instead of having the guts to do it themselves - just look at the videos on their youtube channel.

Very true and they don't make the money from the enthusiast. Its the guy walking down the line in a Fry's, Microcenter, or CompUSA and see's "Ultra Durable" it'll make them think its more reliable, when its probably about on Par with the ASUS (not from personal experience but I know a few people who use the P6T and Rampage II line)

It is pronounced with an ass at the beginning. They even say it that way in their tutorial videos.

Why cant they focus on adding useful features like Digital Pwm or better placement of the third PCIe slot; Rather than this extra thick copper junk.

They could start another lineup and tag them with Sensible Design.
