Thumbs down Asus Rampage III Extreme Warning
Quick warning for anyone considering this board DO NOT BUY IT!!!

I have had 3 over the space of 8 days and all of them have, had the same error pop up of IOH over temperature and it is caused by running your ram at it's rated speed, because Asus have used cheap thermal paste and also not enough of it.

To fix the problem you have to remove the heatsink's, and replace the thermal paste but indoing so you void the warranty.
