We’ve had plenty of ITX motherboards pass by the labs and we’ve always wanted to see these board makers add ITX entries into their enthusiast lines. A recent release from GIGABYTE isn’t quite what we were expecting but ASUS delivered and that’s just what we’re gonna look into today. We’ve reviewed the mainstream ITX offering from ASUS recently, the gold-themed Z87I-Pro which was released side-by-side with the one we are testing today. We’re very excited to test the very first ITX entry in the Republic of Gamers line from ASUS. Decked-out with ROG goodness, this one is sure to impress. Read on and see if the ASUS ROG Maximus VI Impact is for you!
