ASUS P55 + MARS running early

Some friends got early samples and done some test, including ASUS P55 boards and mars.
They've also made a video for the test.
Seems that P55 peforms nearly equal to X58, hehe.

Also, I've managed to get some photos, take a look!

that red board is just down right sexy.

And i personally think the mars cards are bland. they seriously have nothing that special looking about them.

They took off the stock cooling and replaced it with something else?
Besides, if it was photochopped both GPU cards would have been exactly the same, they would have been 002/003. There are also differences between how the fan looks and the color.

But I want NUMBERS!

As of right now I don't really care if it's fake or not. Just putting up pics with no numbers doesn't make anyone happy.

Wating for 3D mark runs, Crysis runs and whatnot
I'm surprised that the first post wasn't:

But can it run Crysis?
