After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.
Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

Included Goodies
Foxconn has always been known for their lavish goodie package when it comes to high end motherboards. The Winfast NFPIK8AA is an excellent example of this given the high quality cardboard box and plethora of cables and external connectors. Well the BloodRage takes this trend and makes it even better.
In fact there are so many things included we’re just going to show them to you.

A nice feature you will notice is the addition of Quantum Force logos on most everything.
Everyone knows that onboard audio options have always been less than stellar however in recent years this has improved, especially given the decline in aftermarket sound options. Foxconn is addressing this issue with their new Sonar X-Fi sound module. This removable module provides all of the analog audio connections and is designed to prevent PWM sounds from accessing the audio module, enhance overclocking and provide better overall audio quality. Sadly the only digital connection is hardwired to the motherboard as a coaxial connection.
