The editors didn't like
None
Neutral
Performance is lacking compared to some ASRock and MSI options
But they are more expensive
“ASUS reliability and performance with a new lick of paint brings X99 performance and features to the mainstream with the Maximus VIII Hero”
ASUS
Pricey
No twin M.2 slots
Only one M.2 PCI-E slot (minor)
No second USB 3.0 header (minor)
No single standout feature
Not the absolute fastest motherboard we've tested
Plastic shroud is all form and no function
Some of the overclocking settings can be difficult to master (namely LLC)
Potential for interference if a graphics card is positioned above the M.2 slot with a U.2 adapter card installed.

The Maximus VIII Hero was very nice to work with. Its BIOS felt stable, had many options, and provided very good guidelines for overclocking. The choice to use Texas Instruments NexFETs in the VRM was a sound one as can be seen in the thermal imaging sec...

Plenty of UEFI/BIOS tuning options, Aggressive pricing, SupremeFX 2015 audio
Maximus VIII Gene is slightly cheaper and almost as capable
it's a solid package that has more to it than what you may initially expect. I implore you to install some of the software packages included with the DVD. A lot of the bundled software is stuff you would otherwise have to pay for. Overwolf, for example...

Cliquez pour agrandirAprès ce test complet, ce kit mémoire Trident Z 3200 MHz CL14 est il le kit à avoir ?Rappelons tout d'abord qu'il s'agit d'un kit de 32Go en configuration dual channel (2 x 16 Go). Le tarif est donc en conséquence, en vente à 248€ ch...
– Overclocking, – Lumières réglables, – Performances de la plateforme Skylake, – Faible consommation en utilisation lourde, – design (petite Armor très sympathique), – Carte son !!
– Bundle un peu moins fourni, – gain de consommation moins important qu'espéré (surtout en idle), – peu d'USB 3.0 à l'arrière (seulement 2)
Alors cette MAXIMUS VIII Hero ?Elle débarque avec une nouvelle plateforme, que nous ne pouvons pas nous empêcher de juger en même temps que la carte mère. Clairement, il y a du bon sur les performances, puisqu'on dépasse largement le Core i5 4690K, sans p...
