The Maximus V Formula I feel is setting a brand new bench mark for versatility. The Fusion Thermo allows for enthusiasts to enjoy the ability to push their motherboard that bit further and get the best results for our games and I applaude you. Also having the mPCIe I think is a step in the right direction for gamers who can't afford the space that traditional wireless cards consume. Though one of the coolest things about the mother board is the simplisticity. It's nicely formed and well designed and hope to see these features integrated into new motherboards.

Before I start I just want to state that whenever there is a give-a-way I notice a lot of new posters (1 post only) makes me think spammers. Okay with that said let me explain why the Maximus V Formula/ThunderFx just work perfect together.

You are pairing two great products together for one insanely low price. Then on top of that you throw in Fusion Thermo, an mPCIe combo, AND SupremeFX IV! I mean really, Asus is basically setting you up with the perfect rig; you cannot mess it up. Finally, the motherboard is backed up with great support and a great community via the ROG forum. Asus stands behind their products and it shows with the Maximus V Formula/ThunderFX.

100 words or less, this was hard lol. Wanted to add more but stick to the point. Good luck all and awesome writes.

My first assumption would not be spammers, but rather lurkers who haven't registered until they saw this and wanted to enter. This is one of the reasons we see forums offer sweepstakes like this, to get more members and the community more active. At any rate, most forums allow moderators to view IP addresses; they can see if two posts have come from the same location. Although this giveaway hasn't detailed any conditions, it's probably safe to assume that only one entry will be accepted per location. No need to worry.

2)Awesome RAM frequency support (Future proof)

3)MIND BLOWING ONBOARD sound

4)Out of the box waterblock on VRM's like never before still keeping the "cool distinct ROG look"

5)LOOOOADS of accessories(everything you need)

6)Specific SATA ports to be use for data (2*Thumbs up)

7)LN2 sensor for the OVERCLOCKERS

8)Huge space between PCIe slot 1 and 2 to Sli/Xfire 3slotted graphics cards(and they Gen 3.0 complaint) 🙂

9)OC Protection for overclocking peace of mind

As much as I appreciate the "appeal" to the water cooling community you didn't do it all the way. The sad part being it probably wouldn't have cost any more to go "all the way". All you had to do was put some G1/4 threads on the block/heatsink instead of some barbs. All true enthusiasts want to use their own fittings, which 9/10 will be compression fittings. I do appreciate the thought though. With the major chipset block designer being EK, who is going in the crapper, it's nice to see you taking it into your own hands. Next time just provide threads though, we'll all appreciate it much more. Cheers.

Don`t want to say too much about a jewelry in technology. I`m sure that everyone will support me about this. This fantastic board exceeded everyone`s expectations both in specifications and features, quality build and performance. It`s magnificent only by definition and name. If exigency requires impeccability then exigency requires this Maximus V Formula, what else would everyone need than this board? It`s the very best of high end and with its power and stability everyone could have the ultimate piece of future technology. What I still think? It has everything that anyone would ever need from a motherboard.
