First thing to note

Why did i go for a microATX when i could have bought a ATX board for my PC Build, Answer is simple this particular Board has more premium features than most of the pro ATX board and almost out performs them at the price and the sheer numbers.

Now its has a great onboard audio chip, a superd BIOS and it is the child of the legend ROG series boards from Asus...

Its small and fits any where and has ample space to fit a huge CPU cooler and 2 Dual Slot cards.

Caution though...

THIS MOTHERBOARD HAS EVERYTHING..... NAME A THING THAT IT DOESN'T HAVE???????

PROS: Z77 CHIPSET, 8 CHANNEL AUDIO WITH SUPREME FX III AUDIO HARDWARE, INBUILD GPU , MANY USB 2&3 PORTS, ETCC...

CONS : DOESN'T SUPPORT 3-WAY SLI

WHAT THE HELL NOBODY CARES FOR A 3-WAY SLI IN INDIA
HARDCORE GAMERS COLSE YOUR EYES AND GO BLINDLY FOR THIS ONE

However for the not so PC savvy tweakers, you could just enabled one of the several CPU level up modes and let the motherboard overclock itself with a variety of choices.

Speaking about overclocking, Ivy bridge processors run hotter when overcloc...

Pros: This board is great. If you are a gamer you shouldn't hesitate on getting this right away. Although the board is small, you still have every port you need. The sound processing on this board is absolute perfection without an added sound card. And the onboard is still better. Another great feature of the board is that it has several LED's that indicate errors if something is wrong. Also is has a digital display panel which gives error codes that you can look up in the mobo manual to find...

I have been using this motherboard for 6 months, and really its a powerhouse. If you are not going to use more than two graphics cards (CF/SLI), as it has only two pcie slots, this motherboard will satisfy all your needs.

Received delivery in 3 days as per mentioned on flipkart.com. Nice packaging for protection.

Pros:
1) SupremeFX III:

It is Awesome Motherboard with it's price range
Very fast, latest technologies, extreme features, attractive first look etc.

Useful if you are buying Intel 3rd gen core processors
For 2nd Gen Core Processors - Costly because Maximus IV Gene Z has almost same result in case of 2nd gen and this Costs more (5000 INR)
Useful if you are buying PCI-E 3.0 Card e.g. Nvidia GTX 6xx series
Nvidia 4xx,5xx series need only PCI-E 2.0

Result - Buy it if you are buying Intel 3rd gen processor with nvidia...
