What are the best looking motherboards that come to mind when you're making a theme build?  Any colors, themes, etc?

 

(if only a z170 had the look of the z87 MPower)

Yes because your wife is full of plastic surgeries and will not last long...

not a big fan of the brand, but the ASRock Z170M OC Formula is pretty different

http://pcpartpicker.com/product/mbKhP6/asrock-motherboard-z170mocformula

Why's that?

I actually build most of my and friends rigs with Asrock stuff, they are very reliable motherboards and when it comes to features they are packed for the pricing.

Personally, and off topic wise.. I am looking for a theme with colors similar to this picture.

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zcZEwGgin6s/maxresdefault.jpg 

Lots of Cherenkov radiation Blue, Lots of yellow Hazardous vibes.  Etc.  Can't really decide on what kind of board I could make work.  All black seems too black.  All white seems too white. 

 

But I just wanted to see some ideas on what boards work best with any theme from you guys :).  Just to get an idea on whats out there
