Looks more like the LED on button. The button looks just like the Previous ROG mobo's light switch. Actually if u look closely at the CMOS battery there u can see a slide switch underneath it. That shud be the CMOS clear switch.

got 2 model, maximus extreme -->ddr3
maximus formula -->ddr2

thx...looks like ddr2 will be a more realistic option until something happens to ddr3 prices


wonder why asus still insist on sticking the ROG metal sticker on SB...they shud just make fins/pins like the NB n PWM's...for those using inverted casings ie LL..the SB gets very warm

actually im quite curious as to whether they solved the sata probslems plaguing the P35 boards...not saying all boards but seen enuf to make me think twice...another thing is whether the sata ports can be individually set to either RAID/AHCI or IDE...that would really help ppl running raid plus adding in a sata ODD

Yo cables, nonid so worried lar. Asus all along very stable 1. Coz they never use reference designs. That's how they avoided the HDD corruption probs that afflicted all other n680i mobos last time oso.  Anyway, u got too many HDDs ler. Faster take out 1 of the Raptor 150 n sell to me.  laugh.gif
