    If it does what it is supposed to who cares how it looks. Of course, I'm one of those guys that has a case without glass sides. I got tracers for no reason...

    Who'd a thought that would get such a reaction.

    Hey... I'm not all about what a motherboard looks like and as long as it functions well that's all good. It still doesn't change the fact that it is fugly. This board is freakin gorgeous compared to the P5K.

    It's almost as if the manufacturer will go out of it's way to find the ugliest color combo available sometimes.

    I think this board would actually look pretty sweet if ALL the slots were green. I agree the heatpipe fins should defintely NOT be cooled by exhaust from the PSU. But as said already there are alternate ways to mount it.

    too bad it's digital PWM. I'd rather have a mobo with an analogue that works right then something new that doesn't. the AW9D's 4 phase comes to mind here... 4 phase and more stable power then even many 8 phase designs.

    I don't know I think the Green and yellow will look sweet under UV if you ask me. Besides its a D.F.I P35 Motherboard which I think will rock the house considering what Oskar has posted allready and I want one!

    I wasn't really trying to be rude. Sorry if I came off as such. If I had to say if a board was cool looking or not I'd make it all black. Nice and simple. All these multi colored boards are pointless to me. I remember when all this started with Abit (i think) and their fatality series. The days of green pcb and white and black slots are over I guess...BTW the p5k isn't all that bad... I personally think the heatpipe craze makes all boards with them look stupid. What ever happened to active cooling?

    CPU = E2140 @ 3.2Ghz (400x8) 1.325v - Thermalright Ultra 120
    RAM = 4GB Crucial ballistix 6400 4-4-4-12 with 2.1v
    G/C = 2x Club3D HD3870 xFire
    PSU = Enermax Liberty 620 Watt
    Storage = 2x Raptor's 150MB RAID 0 + 250GB Barracuda
