Asus X48 Rampage Extreme Motherboard Review

Extra Features

The initial sticker price on the Asus Rampage Extreme can easily make your heart skip a beat. It is only after you open up the box and start viewing all the toys they’ve packed into it that you realize you may have walked away with a bargain. The bundled Creative X-Fi discrete audio card provides a step above most integrated audio solutions that can in itself be considered to be a $50 bundled audio card.

TweakIt I believe is the most powerful technology included with the Rampage Extreme. This is just the first iteration of this technology from Asus; however, it’s immensely useful. TweakIt lets the overclocker completely bypass operating system restraints to fully adjust voltages and FSB frequencies, monitor temperatures and voltages, and select which BIOS to boot from. The possibilities are endless with TweakIt — check out the video below for a quick sample of what it can do.
