Don't like black and red boards, but holy crap!

I personally prefer USB 3.0 to be red instead of blue.

 

They were apparently already designated for something, but nobody gave a clear answer as to what (the best I got was something to do with firewire). 

Read the community standards; it's like a guide on how to not be a moron.

ASUS have had almost nothing but bad designs recently (obviously opinion). Their ROG Z97 boards look pretty bad and similar to MSI's old gaming boards. They had their stupid gold/yellow boards too. Their 5 Way Optimised boards have been alright though. 

 

EVGA have been getting very good with their boards too. Their Z97 Classified is near perfect in terms of looks to me. MSI's X99 SLI Plus is also very very close to looking perfect. 

 

Hmmm....in my opinion its the other way around but I like them just cause the ones I've owned I've never had a problem with.

If you've previously won the build off please pm me so we can get something worked out.

Red USB ports are high powered USB ports that will charge stuff even when the computer is off, at least on some motherboards.

 Nope, that I/O has display port and HDMI, which X99 will not have on any of the motherboards that are manufactured by any company.

 

Edit: disregard my post bro lol, just read all the rest of your post, i get what you were talking about now. my bad.

The EVGA Z97 Classified is very nice with the 90degree 24pin, USB3.0, 6pin PCIE, and fan connectors, but these recent MSI motherboards are sick. I'm torn between one of these rich black MSI motherboards and the Classified.

Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example.
