I asked for a black board and the Ultra delivers though I think it will be out of my price range for a while

Such little colour... such awesomeness.

Such little colour... such awesomeness.

Agreed!
Disappointed that the Ultra Gaming doesn't have dual M.2 however. Kind of kills it for me.

 

[AlienALX]

Very nice, though that first one made me have to look twice to make sure it wasn't an Asus X99 Deluxe ! It's like they stole that and used the shaping from the 1080 Founders.

 

[AngryGoldfish]

Agreed!

Yeah, that's a little bit of a buzz kill. While I won't be using two M.2 drives at first, if I upgrade (either to Kaby Lake or Ryzen) I'll have the system for probably three years, so by then I might want another M.2 drive.

 

[NeverBackDown]

Well being all ssd since day 1, dual M.2 is a must for me. One for OS and one for everything else. I'd be annoyed if I had one drive be 3000mb/s and the other at 560mb/s

Again none of these companies can make a decent looking motherboard now they have to put stupid LED on it to make it look tacky AF.

LED's can be turned off and are usually relatively unobtrusive and clean looking when disabled.

Time you get a cpu cooler, gpu and ram most of them wouldn't be seen if they are switched off, or turned to white they could highlight those areas

Yeah, exactly. I love the direction motherboards are going in. I still feel we could see easily upgrade-able colour accents on heatsinks and more tough looking boards, but this black, grey, and white direction with LED's are a massive step forward. I can always turn the LED's off in the BIOS, but some LED-lit motherboards look very subtle and neat, especially with a big tower and long graphics card populating the board inside a small case.

That is a bs excuses made bye people in general i have said this time after time i just don't want them at all it doesn't matter about turning them off i know there still there and it still looks tacky AF.

Yeah I agree.
Look at how garish and brutally obvious the LEDs are when not turned on.

Emmm... I'm sorry to tell you but I don't know you and I haven't been here for that long. I'm sorry I haven't heard you ranting about LED's before and don't clearly know your stance on them.

huh? you don't even see LED lights on the board unless you shove your face to it and look to the exact spot. It's nothing but a small unobtrusive diode.

 

[Doomslayer]

Yeah I agree.

There still tacky and i know there still there cause i'm looking at it and i see those yellow lines going down on the motherboard so yes even when there off there still tacky AF.

Emmm... I'm sorry to tell you but I don't know you and I haven't been here for that long. I'm sorry I haven't heard you ranting about LED's before and don't clearly know your stance on them.

That's fine you have your opinion on them and i have mine.

Doesn't matter i know there still there.
Why aren't i'm allow to have my OWN DAMN opinion on it and don't turn around and say my opinion is wrong, There is no correct or incorrect opinions.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm really starting to get annoyed with some people trying to change my opinion on products.

Seems like you people will never GET it you will never change my opinion on something,

To the people who are trying to change my opinion you might as well give it it's not going to work and also you might as well put me on your ignore list.

When some other people on this forum have a different opinion on something that's fine but when i do it that's not right, I'm not going to agree for the sake of agreeing.

 

[NeverBackDown]

It's not the we don't understand your opinion but you come off way to aggressive in nearly every postand it just seems like you are looking for an argument. Just relax, state your opinion and be simple about it. Don't be aggressive. After that all will be dandy and no one will seem like they are coming at you. Problem solved
(To be clear here KooS, I'm not coming at you, just suggesting something so this stops happening)

Those yellow lines aren't even the LEDs, and for someone who's getting annoyed with people disagreeing with his opinion you're essentially rubbishing other's opinions when you keep stating "tacky" on LED products rather than just "I don't like them".

Yes, you're entitled to your own opinion and to state it, but if you don't like the look of something try just closing the page and move on, no need to spread negativity on everything you don't happen to like. I'm not a fan of LEDs on components, but i'd be here all day if I chose to inform everyone on every article/review/post.

TBH i can call a product tacky if i want, Well if people don't like my opinion on a product that's not my problem you are free to use the ignore part on this forum cause i'm not going to change my mind and no one can make me.....:lol:

I'm the only one who can change my mind if motherboard makers keep going down this line of putting LED's on motherboards i'm going to keep calling them tacky until they change.

Do you see the hypocrisy here? "I'm going to stamp my feet and whine until I get my own way, and everyone who disagrees is wrong!"

and if you don't like the opinion of people who tell you that they think you're wrong maybe you should follow your own advice and use the ignore function.
