Foxconn Turns on the Heat with X58 Blood Rage
Foxconn has definitely taken serious steps to claim its place in the race for market supremacy with premium motherboards these days. Their high-end motherboard range is diversified into the Digital Life series for the premium all-rounder motherboards, and Quantum-Force for enthusiast and gamer-grade boards. Foxconn's addition to the Quantum-Force series based on the new Nehalem-supportive X58 chipset, is the Blood Rage.
To quickly run you through the features, it is an enthusiast board for overclockers and gamers alike. It only features three DDR3 DIMM slots, while featuring four PCI-Express x16 slots, supporting both ATI CrossfireX and NVIDIA SLI. It supports DDR3 1800 memory (OC), and a 14 phase hybrid CPU power circuit featuring DirectFET MOSFET technology. The board features a 4-in-1 chipset cooler technology, which can serve purposes of a air-cooling (DIY), water-cooling, and cavity for liquid-nitrogen cooling, much like the Black Ops motherboard. Sound is modularised, with a bundled Foxconn SONAR X-Fi sound card. The board supports SAS storage. What a drool!

so foxcon, bundled a creative soundcard, that swet.
i didn't know foxcon produce creative soundcard
Im a sucker for a black & red colour scheme. but if its even close the the price of the Asus X58 Rampage (ROG??) then in this case id say it looks sexy but its not practical.....
Let the benchmarks speak for itself. ether way you look at it im not paying £150 for looks.
Here's hoping for 4GB DDR3 by the time this board hits (or my eyes are on the P6T6 WS Revolution).
mmm...
