Maximus VIII Formula has been pumped up and packed to the brim with enhancements, so competitors are warned, gamers get set and enthusiasts prepare to push your limits - ROG is ready to accept all challenges! ROG teamed up with the cooling masters at EK Water Blocks to create CrossChill EK, an extreme-performance cooling block with a copper channel that's hungry for either air or liquid. It is used high-precision laser-engraving technology to carve beautifully intricate patterns across the ROG Armor that enrobes Maximus VIII Formula, allowing the radiant RGB light of 28 integrated LEDs to shine through and illuminate key parts of the board - including the MOSFET heatsink cover, PCIe area and the striking ROG logo on the PCH cover!
