Yet another Haswell-ready motherboard has appeared. There are definitely quite a few of them on display in Taipei, Taiwan, at Computex 2013.

The one in the lone photo we have to share here is none other than Galaxy X87 HOF.

Where HOF stands for Hall of Fame and, naturally, implies that this is a might platform indeed.

Sure enough, the Z87 HOF is supposed to be the strongest Galaxy motherboard yet.

Spec-wise, it has four PCIe 3.0 x16 slots (all four at electrical x16, regardless of what is installed in them), a 24-pin ATX power plug, two 8-pin plugs, a 16-phase VRM to power the CPU.

4-way SLI and CrossFireX are both supported, along with four SATA storage drives (SATA III 6 Gbps), and Gigabit Ethernet.

Other specs include 8-channel HD audio, eSATA, DVI, HDMI, mSATA/mPCIe, onboard OC controls, dual-BIOS, VRM measure points, an OC module, and feature-rich UEFI setup program.

Pricing and availability are to be announced.
