ASUS Shines with New Marine Cool Motherboard Concept

It think it looks incredibly cool but the SO-Dimm's is just a :confused:


Most likely this is an early prototype, I've never seen an ATX board run SO-DIMM's. I don't think any of us have. I'd say this is such an early concept that anything can change on it and I wouldn't doubt if it did.
 
yep i see lots of capacitors (50 to be more precise )

Th1nk you are way

What chipset does it use :confused:

Holy crap that motherboard looks awesome!! I wish they would make one for the AM2+/AM3 platform. But why use SO-DIMM????

I think that is a test board?

They add So-DIMM just to test it out. I think i have seen this before on test boards.
 
Test board or not I love the styling of this board...I hope it goes into production!
 
k I really with I was rich...wonder when they will bring this tech to a 1366?
 
that thing is sex!
 
Very nice board indeed, even with the southbridge :rolleyes:
 
To me looks like Barby doll , one Barby doll + many looks to go with ..

Since when we got motherboards , because of their look .. :ohwell:

Those who care about the appearance of thier pc. Why do I do cable management, get a fancy heatsink and case then have an ugly motherboard ruin it.
 
Do not get in there .... who cares about the MSI red boards , when the opponent ASUS one was the performance killer ....

Not all ASUS are performance killers , but time will tell if this one, it will survive in both ... competition and time .
 
Oopsie Doopsie Woopsie

I did :cool: :p :D
 
guys hold up,this maybe beautifful board,but how about the prices?grat mobo+so dimm,??
 
I think its made of superior metals... So we should wait for this board to come to the consumer market.
 
yup, i agreed with you,let see the benchmark of this board..

It should be waterproof. I just don't get the name at all.

sodimm makes no sense.

i wonder what that rear thing DOES?

(oh and you can see LGA775 written next to the CPU socket)

the thing on the back of the mobo acts like some of the other plates on asus mobo's the concept that have been using is they put these special mpads underneath the cpu socket and sometimes if i remember correctly the NB it absorbes heat from the underside of the components and the pcb. it makes it easier on the transistors and all the components because it absorbes the heat that is usually simply passivly dissipated.

i think it looks cool. i hope they come out with a 1366 varient. and no so-dimms. im loving the 100% solid state caps and what looks like 2 phase regulators.
 
waterproof omg = imba + add water + X - all knowledge or everything we have known before ! :cool: :p :D
 
Mineral oil rig comes to mind.
 
Makes me wanna go Intel all of a sudden, all I can say is awsome design Asus.. Just awsome.. :rockout:
