[FS][US] Asrock Z68 Extreme 7 Motherboard

theonedub · Sep 7, 2012, 12:59 AM

Moving my i7/580 setup into a mITX build and storing the 650D until I can build a 6 core setup in it. That, unfortunately, leaves no room for this board.

Easily clocked the 2600k as high as 4.6ghz, but kept it at 4.3ghz as a nice medium. Board looks great with the gold caps. Really looks identical to the $350 Extreme9 except that the heatsinks on this board do not have any white LED accent lighting. Board is in excellent shape- only thing I can see is a slight scratch on the southbridge heatsink (see pics). Never used it with PCIe 3.0 or SLI, so I can't really comment on that aspect of the board, but the NF200 chip in this board means you can run TriSLI without problems.

Will come with the box, manuals, Driver CD, ~3 black SATA cables, and the hard TriSLI bridge (can include a standard SLI bridge for those who need one as well). Does not have the additional USB3.0 rear PCI bracket, but since there is only one internal USB3.0 header, I doubt anyone will miss it. For those of you who do not have a USB3.0 case I will include an ASUS 2.5" USB3.0 adapter so you can enjoy USB3 speeds with this board.

Im looking for $OLD.

Beautiful board that re-ignites my desire to have tri-fire 6950's rather than upgrade to even the 8xxx/7xx generation of cards. Bump for a great board and a generous member of TPU.

Thats a beautiful board; if only I was independently wealthy! Its really been cramping my style lately.

theonedub · Oct 18, 2012, 02:39 AM

Top!

I'm a bit behind the times. 99% certain this will work with a 3570k, if so I'll take it.

Should work fine with that CPU, I am fairly certain I updated to the Ivy BIOS and UEFI once I installed my 2600k. Shoot me a PM if you have Q's.
