Retired

I got this Mobo a year ago and I've been rocking it ever since, the only problem I've ever encountered is the Chassis Intruded block in bios boot up, but easy enough to solve.

My current system is:
Rampage Extreme Mobo
Wolfdale E8600
XFX Radeon HD 4890
4 GB Patriot Memory
1 TB Western Digital Drive

Now that I am back in town with my rig and proper guidance, Ill be overclocking this rig hardcore over the weekend, probably drop a SSD in and swap memory out as needed, with some Water, DICE and maybe LN2 to push this baby to the max.

Not at the Moment Brian, My Motherboard is covered in dragon skin, getting used to Bench. I used it last weekend and I'm going to be pushing some FSB out of it this weekend too with another fun filled LN2 bench session, I'll take some pics of our test bench area and throw them up in the OverClock section if Travis hasn't already.

Long live the Rampage Extreme!!

I still rock mine out every now and then. Actually about to give it another go. After all the abuse it still pushes 01 at 6.5GHz with a E8600.

My favorite board ever. Mine won't run high memory clocks anymore (2:3) but it still runs high FSB. I wish you could still buy these boards new, how bout a re-issue? 😄

I still use mine as a 24/7 gaming rig,...not hardcore as some of you, but it's got to be one of the best motherboards I've ever purchased and used on a daily basis. Long Live the REX.:D

Here is my Rampage Extreme setup. I've been getting the "New CPU installed" error everytime the system starts. I've already tried to do a CMOS reset, CMOS battery replacement, BIOS Flash and CPU re-seating but the error is still there. Is the bios chip faulty?

I still run one. But I'm wanting to kick it to the curb. I hate it.
