Awesome. Thanks, man.

Hopefully the massive and high-powered Asus legal team doesn't read and follow. Lol. What a joke.

No problem. Stuff over there is still just linked to...nothing is hosted by the forum. Hopefully they do read and see that their product isn't nearly as good as it could be.

I wouldn't be surprised if hardware.info gets blacklisted from ASUS' pre-launch material in the future.

Is the mod certain about NDA?

Hello

You are correct. The NDA ended today (the 9th U.S. time).

For future reference, you guys don't need to be so secretive about the time when NDA's lift, especially if we know it is coming. That will eliminate a lot of confusion and speculation.

Look at that... little Impact is available. It's expensive as Devil.
I expect this board to cost under 200$ but she cost more than Hero.
Why...??? probably more material and controllers than on E-ATX compressed in small form factor...
To be honest with this Sound Card look A M A Z I N G. Pitty because I will never go below mATX.
My next Xtreme motherboard is mATX.

But this Sound Card mean really lot. If manufacturer decide to give good sound card that's it, for Mini ITX no other option.
Good Sound or you hear enemy when start to fill you with bullets... 😄
Power section on this small devil is better than on some ATX boards. OVERKILL is right way.
But Gene is my favorite Z170. Dedicate Sound, One GPU, One M.2 One PCI-E SSD.

Why does the drawing in the manual show an ASM 1142k USB 3.1 Gen 2 controller, I thought Alpine Ridge would be used for this?
