ASUS OC Station...Anyone have one?

[scooter69]

I know in a way it's cheating, but I'm thinking about getting the Asus OC Station. The only problem is I can't find anything that says it specifically will work on the Maximus II Formula(about 9-12 months old). It's a ROG board and looks to have the connector but I don't want to spend the cash just to find out it won't work for some reason. If anyone has some info they can give me it would be great. THANKS

Apparently it's only compatible with the Rampage II's and the Crosshair III's. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/motherboards/2009/08/06/asus-oc-station-review/1

Did you not Google it? A simple search for "Asus OC Station" pulled up a ridiculous number of hits, with the first one being that link.

Again, my maximus II formula has the same connections and is a ROG board "I can't find anything that says it specifically will work on the Maximus II Formula" So I ask again. Does anyone know specifically if it will or will not work with my board? If not, what is the "GP" 8 pin connector for?

Its not compatible with your Board AFAIK :

You can use Turbo V or Bios which does the exact same function w/o having to spend any money on expensive OC'ing peripherals. Its more of a flashy piece of hardware rather than a necessity.

Thanks everyone for your time and input. I'm really tempted to go ahead and get it, based on the fact my board is a ROG board with the exact same connections as the known supported boards,. If I do get it, I'll post my results if anyone is interested.
Thanks again everyone.
