But wait, the most attractive feature is the two hinges that move independently to control tilt and angle as users want. Cool babe!

Virtual-Hideout recently posted a review for Asus Blitz Formula and Blitz Extreme series motherboard. Both boards utilize Intel P35 chipset and support the whole Intel Core 2 family (Quad / Extreme / Duo), as well as previous Pentium 4 series processors. The difference between Blitz Formula and Extreme is that the former uses DDR2 SDRAM, while the latter supports the faster DDR3 main memory. For the detail on each motherboard, check out Asus product page here and here.

Excerpt from the review:

ASUS has been gracious in providing us with two enthusiast minded solutions for both DDR2 and DDR3 utilizing the same P35 chipset, in the Blitz Formula and Blitz Extreme. Why would ASUS consider offering the two options? Well in a nut shell, it simply saves you some money since new memory standards are always costly at the start and some users would like to really maximize their DDR2 based system. ASUS is well aware of this and felt that there was no reason why both kinds of memory module owners couldn’t have a little bit of cake and ice cream. The only question you would need to ask yourself is, which flavor ice cream you would like.
