Do not want. Was expecting a bit more but whatever, glad I don't have to spend another 4 hundo on minor upgrades now, and this makes me feel more at ease. Guess I'll wait and see if they release a new revision or Black Edition of the RIVE. Of course for people building new rigs this will probably be the 1155 ROG board to get, unless it's a considerable amount more than the IV Extremes.
 
At least the PCIe power supplement is at an less obtrusive area....still molex though /sigh wonder how long till molex is finally gone.

The watercooling thing looks like an afterthought and why are there TWO optical audio ports?

but w/e as long as the bios and hardware itself is relable ASUS has a nice product.

So did I.

Although the heatsink doesn't look especialy efficient if you ask me.

What is wrong with the tiny barbs people? They look standard 3/8 to me.
A lot of people who actually take the time/money to water cool their motherboards generally spend that extra $ to have compression fittings. Barbs look decent but IMO they don't match up to some properly used compression fittings.
 
And then I'm just sitting here getting

from derick and not knowing what compression and barb fittings are.
I'll get the motherboard anyway @_@
 
I dont understand this, most people that wants to go mobo-water will most likely buy a block them selfs... so who is this for?
also isnt the first time Asus does this, one of the nVidia board had "waterblocks" aswell.
