Our first "High-End" board without a USB 3.0 front panel device, Slot spacing not ideal for multi-GPU configurations, Forced overclock with "stock" ASUS settings, Small size may leave it overlooked by many, BIOS has too many pages, Voltage read points nee
We cannot say enough how impressed we are with the ASUS Maximus IV Gene-Z. When it comes to the BIOS, although we feel that the pages are far too numerous, we wouldn't want to see a single option removed, and the ones we'd like to see added hardly have...

Abstract: ASUS is know for their high quality computer components. Whether you are talking about graphics cards like the all new uber ASUS ROG Mars II 3GB card or the ASUS GTX 560 DirectCU II TOP card, which is much more main stream. Either way you get a qua...
Small Form Factor, Dual GPU support, factory Turbo Overclock, Virtu Feature that Works, Red and Black Color Scheme, Lots of ROG Features

Abstract: I'm not sure why, but I'm such a sucker for the mATX format when it comes to computing. I say I'm not sure why because I don't have an mATX system, nor do I have a need for one, but it doesn't stop me from being interested in the layout. For years we saw ...
So is the change to the Maximus IV sweet as Aristotle prophesied or does it leave a bitter taste?Probably the first thing to get your head around is the fact that the extra Z at the end makes all the difference. This isn't a cut-down version of the previo...
If we had to answer one thing the Maximus IV Gene-Z does, it's that ASUS show us just because you want to go for a mATX platform, it doesn't mean you have to sacrifice performance or features. The Maximus IV Gene-Z does exactly what you'd want from n...
Abstract: Do not let its small size deceive you. In spite of its microATX form factor, the ASUS Maximus IV GENE-Z is an ROG-certified motherboard, which means it is tailored to fit the needs of power-hungry PC gamers. Nevertheless, given its more compact profile, t...
