Asus Maximus 9 Extreme
In closing, this motherboard is extreme, very extreme in everything from looks to features. But mostly we love that waterblock on the VRM and CPU area. Now, we do realize that maybe 0.1% of end-users (or an even smaller number) are actually going to purchase a motherboard like this due to the price level. But that doesn't make this any less of a quality product.

What we have here is, as we originally thought, quite possibly the craziest motherboard we've ever seen. However, rather than offer 30 SATA ports, or five M.2 ports, Asus' efforts are actually quite measured and useful. The water block is fantastic and...
