APRESENTAÇÃO
Com a chegada dos novos CPU’s e Chipsets, os construtores de motherboards têm novidades, com vários preços e diferenças de qualidade, melhores ou piores caraterísticas, surgem todos os anos novos modelos.
Depois do lançamento da sua série mais comum, também ela de alta qualidade, a ASUS faz sair para o mercado a série ROG que é a sua topo de gama. Desta vez temos a oportunidade de testar a MAXIMUS VI GENE.
A ASUS proporcionou-nos a possibilidade de analisar um dos modelos de motherboards mais esperados depois da Maximus VI Extreme. Esta é uma placa de média-alta gama que tem na sua maioria características e componentes de alta-gama, mas a um preço mais acessível.
