Even if it is, is it a good motherboard in general.

 

Im trying to keep the black and white colors at the same time.

I am going to game but also render on it.

 

I want to have white in the board to make it fit in the rest of the board, also im gonna use the rgb fans from corsair and want the eco system to work properly.

 

I dont know which boards are out there that will fit my needs.
