The Test System and Comments
Our test system is built on an open bench. This has two effects on testing. First it allows us to see everything and also to setup and disassemble the test rigs quickly. Second it means that we cannot gauge the potential air flow found in a normal case. The air is pretty stagnant; some may say this is a great neutral testing method and it can be. However, it does mean that the temperature reading taken off of the components are not accurate to what an average consumer would see. This means that your thermal performance will vary from what we see here.
The Rampage III Extreme was pretty easy to get setup and running, we did have the issue with our Hyper 212 Plus and the NB fan, but after removing that and starting again things went well. The installer that Asus provides for drivers is a very good one and was able to install everything with only a single reboot needed.  The only other hiccup was the problem with the Core Ratio tab in the TurboV application.
