ASRock's Z97 Extreme6 Motherboard Review @ Tech Report

With all the new fanfare over the E-Haswell's, we can't forget that the Z97's are still fresh, and a great foundation to build a new system on if you don't have a couple grand laying around for the X99.  ASRock just released a new Z97 motherboard with some great features beefing up the onboard M.2 sockets.  

The market for Haswell motherboards is crowded with contenders, many of which differ only slightly from one another. ASRock's Z97 Extreme6 manages to stand out among the masses, though. Unlike most Z97 offerings, whose M.2 sockets connect via dual PCIe 2.0 lanes in the chipset, the Extreme6 boasts "Ultra M.2" goodness with quad PCIe 3.0 lanes from the CPU.
