ROG Strix is a new series: “The art of expression”

On Tuesday, ASUS announced a new lineup called “ROG Strix,” beginning with the ROG Strix X99 Gaming motherboard. With this series in its ROG brand, the company is focusing heavily on dynamic lighting customization and network priority traffic control, two features that will provide gamers and enthusiasts with color-matching RGB lighting effects to inspire PC design creativity, as well as ultra-low latency multiplayer experiences.

Fully compatible with Haswell-E and Broadwell-E

On Tuesday, ASUS and its Republic of Gamers (ROG) division jointly announced three new Signature series motherboards built for Socket LGA 2011-v3, featuring ASUS exclusive technologies such as “OC Socket,” “Aura” onboard RGB lighting, ThunderboltEX 3, and SafeSlot PCI-Express designs with fortified metal and superior bracket retention mechanisms.

Compared with the Core i7-5960X

It is obvious that Intel's Broadwell-E HEDT launch is drawing near as with all the previous leaks we now have some of the first benchmarks of the flagship ten-core Core i7-6950X.

€399, but you do get pretty much everything

The new Asus X99-Deluxe/U3.1 is shipping in Europe and the asking price is a rather saucy €399.

All-in-One block for motherboard and Haswell-E CPU

EK Water Blocks, our good friends and well-known premium liquid cooling manufacturers based in Slovenia, have unveiled a rather impressive looking all-in-one Monoblock liquid cooling solution for the Asus Rampage V Extreme motherboard and Intel Core i7 Haswell-E CPU, the EK-FB ASUS R5E Monoblock.

Eight cores, 140W

Intel is planning to continue making unlocked superclocked X-series processors that we all know as Haswell-E or Sandy Bridge-E.

Three models now, higher-end one next year
