During its OC Main Event in San Francisco, co-hosted by ASUS, Corsair and Intel, ASUS ROG Rampage IV Black Edition motherboard was used in order to break no less than five current overclocking records in 3DMark, Cinebench and quad-channel memory frequency.
In addition to ASUS ROG Rampage IV Black Edition, bechmark systems also used ASUS' GTX Titan graphics cards, Intel's 4th generation Core i7 Extreme Edition CPUs and Corsairs Vengeance Extreme and Dominator Platinum DDR3 memory modules that were enough for overclockers like 8 Pack, Dumo, Fugger, Gunslinger, and Rbuass as well as ROG engineers Coolice, Raja and Shamino to break a few overclocking world records including 3DMark 11 Entry, 3DMark 11 Performance, 3DMark Fire Strike, Cinebench, and quad-channel memory frequency.
ASUS' own Shamino and 8 Pack, Gunslinger and Rbuass were focused on 4-way SLI and 3DMark where they managed to achieve a record of E38231 in Entry, P38227 in Performance and 32268 in Fire Strike benchmarks while Fugger and Raja managed to break Cinebench and score 17.65 points in the six-core category.
Colice and Dumo were on the other hand focused on Corsair's top-notch memory kits and managed to get them up to 3,900MHz.
Skillful overclockers and high-quality components are quite important but you must also have a great motherboard to cope with it as well and it looks like ASUS ROG Rampage IV Black Edition is definitely living up to its name.
