Asus Maximus III GENE review and specification

In my opinion Asus Maximus III Gene is the small form factor of ASUS Maximus III formula. It has the same processor support and chipset of Intel P55 Express. Also, this ROG family motherboard is Multi GPU support and dual channel DDR3 memory.
For most gamers, Asus Maximus III is the best choice to start building a powerful PC, but off course it price is higher than other kind of motherboard.
