Foxconn Quantum-Force Blood Rage Release Grade Motherboard Pictured

Quantum Force is the series of motherboards by Foxconn aimed at serious overclockers, enthusiasts, and gamers alike. Blood Rage is the name of the motherboard Foxconn plans to release, that's based on Intel's newest X58 Express chipset, supporting the upcoming Core i7 processors from Intel.

This motherboard first came to light last week, when a few quick low-resolution snaps were passed on to the internet (covered here). VR-Zone now put up high resolution images, that reveal a lot more about this motherboard. Full-resolution versions of the first picture can be viewed here, and that of the second picture here.
The motherboard emphasizes on a straightforward DIY design, that gives users quick access to all its features. It includes a DIY motherboard cooling kit and a case control panel. The images show that the CPU socket has 90mm mount-holes for supporting LGA-775 coolers. This could be especially nice if you have an expensive TEC unit or copper LN2/dry-ice cavity that you've maintained for your LGA-775 machine all this while, or pretty-much any cooler you don't like letting go of. The CPU area also reveals high-grade digital PWM power circuitry, with the board being studded with high-grade components throughout.

Not all. It's optional for motherboard vendors to add support for SLI, as they will be paying royalties to NVIDIA for each X58 motherboard w/ SLI they sell. Technically every X58 motherboard is capable of running SLI.

Regarding BloodRage, I'm sure it comes with SLI support.

Hexus have some more information on my next motherboard. ;) Check out the optional extras...

For those of you that want to build it outside of your chassis.


A rather stupid colour for a red and black motherboard, but if you're worried about your multiple GFX set up, then you can pick up the Blue LED Quantum Flow 120.

It connects to the end of your GPUs and apparently will drop temps by 5°C or around that.

Now this is worthy inclusion considering the price of these motherboards and one we've already known about.


However, this is the cream of the crop for me and I'm scouring the net (when I can) to see if anyone has got one working.

According to Hexus;
Parm Mannbut the optional extra slots into a 5.25in optical bay and features an LCD display that'll show any Post errors and allow for voltage and fan adjustments.
I just hope the display has a red display with black text or the other way around (which is more likely) however I expect it'll either be blue or something boring.

U could always make one the way PALiT_Guy does. Find an old modem or anything really. and scrape off anything you don't want on there. Then cut and make holes to mount a fan on your new, and improved ghetto card cooler.

So do all those "extras" come with the board, or must they be purchased separately? If they come with the board, that's freaking awesome!

They're available separately unfortunately. I wouldn't be surprised to see a bumper pack edition of the board though where it comes with these additional extras.
