ASUS Striker II Extreme Pro Reviews

AnandTech‘s review Edit

ASUS' third-generation advanced power delivery system is back and as good as ever. ASUS uses the finest ultra-low ESR, polymer capacitors from Fairchild and solid, low-DCR Yageo inductors. Simply noting the inductor count will tell you this board uses an 8-phase PWM, with one small twist though: the PWM buck controller really only supports true 4-phase operation but with an output multiplexer used to double the phase count. This means a sudden power demand placed on the system will only draw current from four of the phases while the other four sit idle, unattached from the load.

TechSpot‘s review Edit

Overall the ASUS Striker II Extreme is an excellent motherboard that ranks up high with other premium offerings both in terms of performance and price (~$300). This could easily become a platform of choice for those gamers looking to build a SLI enabled system. That said, for single card setups there is little to be gained by owning an nForce 790i Ultra SLI motherboard, even more so with the added cost of DDR3.
