The old-school idea of performance being limited by the small-scale motherboards has been blown out of the water increasingly by Asus over the last year or so, culminating in the mATX performance of this P67 board.
Keeping pace with a full-size, and more expensive, P67 is impressive, and beating it by even such a short way doubly so.
