Wow, very low price for an SLI capable Z97 Motherboard that comes with a lot of features.  Typically Z97 and SLI capable would cost you $130+  at this price, it is a steal!

 

MSi Z97 G-55 SLI ATX LGA1150

 

-$15 Instant Discount Code: SUPMBTE, -$20 Mail-In-Rebate

 

Ends 8/6/14

They use brown PCBs because it's cheaper I think than solid black pcbs

Gaming, see signature. ;) That's the wierd thing.

 

You don't really see it in my PC, especially because i shine red LEDs on my components, which kills the brown color. But as soon as you shine white light at my motherboard you can tell. And when you can tell it, you know it, and when you know it, it will eat up your mind and you will think about switching to a Z97 gaming 5 or 7 just for the black PCB...... or you will palsti dip your mobo....

 

That's what i am rolling around with my mobo. :-/

who cares...
