    That is a fine looking board. Too much clutter, though. Looks to be packed to the teeth with neat features.

    WOW. $400

    Fixed. My bad.

    Was looking at the Thermaltake V1AX installed on the board and inadvertently referred to the behemoth V10 cooler as Tt instead of Cooler Master. Apologies.

    Thanks Bully, sharp eye!

    If you think the Rampage 2 price is outrageous, wait for our next highend motherboard review.
