    Today we'll review the Maximus Gene III for what I feel is one of the best tweaker / gamer P55 motherboards currently available in the market. The ROG addition motherboards lure the Guru3D.com audience...

    A very nice little board. I keep changing my mind between a small htpc and a obsidian 800 for my next pc.

    May I ask for a link to the "Sponge Explode" test for Kribi? I've looked but cant find it on the net - I'd be interested to see how my system does.

    That board looks sweet for mATX and as it's previous Maximus board, the design is very nicely done again. I wonder how my current setup (Maximus II + E8600) overall would compare to the one reviewed...when it comes to the few games benchmarked. I can't say i see a huge differences tho.

    BTW, The 'sponge explode' benchmark you were looking is part of KribiBench from http://www.adeptdevelopment.com/ also mentioned on Page 10 and 15.

    Maximus II Formula with E8600 @ 4.12Ghz: 8.8 fps
