Republic of Gamers laptop from Asus offers exclusive features such as SupremeFX Formula audio and CrossChill Hybrid cooling. Gamers looking for a premium laptop can expect the device to deliver just the right performance to suit their needs. With exceptional features, the question now is, has Razer Blade found its match?

The Maximus VI Formula runs on the latest Intel Z87 chipset. Asus' ROG is packed with a number of innovative and exclusive components. Gamers will be delighted to find a device packed just right for their needs. For instance, the CrossChill hybrid air and water-cooling mechanism makes sure heat is dissipated efficiently. This powers up the overclocking performance.

The SupremeFX Formula onboard audio, on the other hand, comes with an excellent 600-ohm headphone amplifier. This makes sure the audio is exceptional. The mini-PCIe Combo II card provides additional dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi for efficient wireless networking.

Other specs include Extreme Engine DIGi+ III technology as well as top notch electronic components ensuring precise delivery of power including stable performance. The exclusive ROG CrossChill technology loaded on the Maximus guarantees a motherboard that can cool well with water or air. Tests on the device revealed that the ROG can reach up to 23 degree centigrade lower temperatures even when subdued within critical MOSFET area. This ensures the device has reliable overclocking.

The internal cooling system of CrossChill features fins to make the most out of the surface area ideal for heat transfer. Since the CrossCHill utilizes standard G ¼-inch threaded fittings, it is will convenient to make room for existing cooling equipment.

The casing or the armor of the ROG also assists in cooling the Maximus VI Formula. The casing features a durable ABS plastic top cover. This separates the graphics cards far from the motherboard. Whereas the Steel, Electro-galvanized, Cold-rolled Coil or SECC backplate packed with thermal pads also makes the cooling system of the MOSFET more efficient. This setup also ensures and prevents the motherboard from bending - this is even under heavy weight of other components.

ROG has invested on excellent design. Asus made sure the device features a high-quality design that supports the overall function of the laptop. The ROG Extreme Engine DIGI+ III voltage-regulator module (VRM) guarantees that there is proper and stable distribution of power all throughout. Components included are NexFET MOSFETs, Japanese-made 10-K black metallic capacitors and 60-A BlackWing chokes.

The Maximus VI Formula additionally features the award-winning and upgraded UEFI BIOS.
