Don't know why Asus do this color scheme to the Sabertooth line. Looks a little bit ridiculous, actually I've seen the P55 Sabertooth for a few times and I gotta say the Republic of Gamers line of motherboard looks a lot sexier (Red and Black are my favorite colors)

Nice looks, not my taste. Anyway you should consider this as pure marketing: "military" stands for best technology, that's hard to beat. Of course this is pure bullshit.

Let's face it: nearly every single mainboard out on the market has no style! The last line, the blue ones, is ugly as hell. Some of the newer EVGA-Boards are looking good, simple in style, with much black. But the market is missing some really nice looking boards. Let's say with some kind of aluminum-finish, chrome-parts, whatever is looking more serious than this pieces of child toys. I don't want to have those multicolored pieces in my expensive and good looking Lian Li anymore. Manufacturers, give me Black, give me metal, give me chrome!

What the crap has it to do with style lol.. Fuck style i want performance and if that means ugly i'll buy it at least it would mean it was made correctly.

Hate it when they like like a packet of skittles.

Just started testing this. So far so good, 4GHz, 12GB of 12GB all showed up and OC'd to 1531MHz (it failed on P6X58D-E with 4GB or 8GB) so maybe ASUS have finally got this nailed.

Overall a nice board and should cost less than most X58 boards worth their salt.

Loving the Greige/green camo
