The two newest bad boys in the house are none other than than the two Republic of Gamers branded motherboard and graphics card. The ASUS Rampage V Extreme motherboard is the new X99 motherboard that is geared up and prepared for extreme sub 0 degree conditions, ready to break world benchmark records. On the other hand, The GTX980 STRIX is also a custom GTX980 graphics card that is made much cooler and silent than the standard GTX980 for gamers who want to have the fullest in their games.
If you are looking for an extremly compact and small solution, the ASUS Q87T motherboard could be the right choice. This mini-itx motherboard is a budget oriented motherboard that aims to entice first time small form factor PC builders.
Additionally, ASUS also has their H81I-PLUS motherboard, another no-frills motherboard for the mainstream builder.
