Still, because the Rampage brand has always been about offering the ultimate performance platform, the ASUS Xpander - with its additional pair of NF200s - still fits the Black Edition, which means four-way SLI is still possible. This means the PCI-Express performance is as fast as native X58 offers, so for anything less than four-way SLI setups this is the best option as adding NF200s will drop performance 1-3%. The four PCI-Express lanes can be split up to 8x/8x/8x/8x, however there is no Nvidia NF200 chipset on the actual PCB itself.

The Rampage III Extreme has had a bit of a makeover - the Black Edition is, well, a lot darker than before as all the ports and sockets now don a black and dark grey coat, rather than a dash of red as well.įirstly you'll notice the heatsinks have also been upgraded to match the Maximus IV Extreme. If you look carefully at the VRM heatsink there's even an ROG logo stealthily incorporated too.ĪSUS has designed the Black Edition to give the best of both worlds, whether you prefer to use anything from a single GPU to four of them.
