Posted May 5, 20205 yr Crew Just received this beauty on my doorstep, thanks to ASUS Benelux! Here are some pictures I took with my smartphone. First impressions: She feels solid, the heatsinks combo weighs a ton, can't wait to fire her up! Where's mee seepeeuuuu?
May 5, 20205 yr I prefer the XI Apex's clean cut look over this, but this board still looks awesome! Very nice pictures too Alby, thanks!
May 7, 20205 yr Just beatiful! Practical question: holes near the socket, are they identical in size to those in Apex XI? I mean, from Apex XI, I still have the 9th Gen Direct to Die frame from rockitcool. Do I need to buy a separate frame for comets? I already have two in the collection, from Kaby and CFL-R.
May 7, 20205 yr Very nice board. Im spending money for Rocket Lake i7/i9, this CPU gen skip off and will only watching what happens in records
May 10, 20205 yr Awesome looking board. I kinda like that they went back to the weird x shape cutout style haha. Thanks for sharing! ?

May 14, 20205 yr Does anyone know when this board will be for sale? I heard it will be launched later and it isn't listed in any german shop as all other boards.
May 14, 20205 yr It's listed in sweden. around 600€. Seeing as people are showing retails already my guess it will be available at launch https://www.inet.se/produkt/1903164/asus-rog-maximus-xii-apex-z490

May 14, 20205 yr What's your opinion about the changes to the 12 Apex vs the 11 Apex visually or build quality? Are the VRM phases the same, besides increase in power stages to 70A?

June 6, 20205 yr Hi, Probably should of waited until early July for the Apex but copped out for the formula in 5 days instead I don't buy boards from newegg only amazon or locally better customer support.
