As you would expect with the choicest power phases and ASUS best BIOS, the stock performance is pretty damn impressive, matched only by the Formula. Memory performance is slightly less impressive, although that is largely because it's so similar and the CPU performance was so jaw-dropping. Considering we got the best overclock we've managed from our i7-6700K it's not a shock to find it topping the overclocking results.

What a stunning board. Are you watching MSI?Quote
My Maximus VIII Extreme Assembly was delivered 2 hours ago, currently building the new beast.. First impressions of the board is very impressive. Can't wait to see what this thing can do.Quote
Is it just me or does it look like an 24 pin, where normally an 4 pin or 8 pin power cables goes to the CPU?... (Yes, I've totally brainfarted right now, so completely messed up how to explain this...)
