Asus announced the Asus ROG Maximus II Formula Motherboard in June. Motherboards just published a review of the ASUS Republic Of Gamers Maximus Formula II motherboard.
Quote from the review: "From a performance point of view, the ASUS Maximus II Formula is simply head and shoulders above the other P45 motherboards I've tested in the important categories of Sysmark (overall system score) and 3DMark (Graphics scores). From a Features point of view, the 8 SATA ports, CrossfireX compatibility and the ability to overclock the CPU to a higher clock speed automatically (CPU LevelUp) are features that a gamer will use. The inclusion of a full version of Kapersky Antivirus and 3DMark06 are added bonuses that make this motherboard worthy of a ROG sticker and my recommendation. P45 chipsets have hit the market in full force with ICH10R and a slew of improvements due to the smaller process scale of 65nm.
As we move further into 2008 and into 2009 we will see a whole new platform, but for the mainstream enthusiast gamer this board is as good as it gets."
