This is the MSI X99S XPOWER AC. With 8 DIMMs for quad channel DDR4 and five PCIe x16 Gen3 slots this motherboard will not disappoint you. It likes LN2 and it features several new overclocking features. What do you want more?

In my eyes all the teased pictures of the upcoming X99 boards (all black, gaming and this one) from MSI look awesome and I think MSI did a very good job there.

I wish every motherboard came out in two colour schemes. All black or all white. That way they will go with every build imaginable. I would always go for an all black mobo though. If there isn't another x99 mobo that is all black I will go for this one simply because it's all black.

I'm really, really hoping they continue this styling with more mainstream boards... That x99s sli plus is so tempting....

YES! This NEEDS to happen. A $150 all black board with a similar feature set to something like a MSI Z97 Gaming 3 would be perfect.

Love the looks of it but come on when is right angled 24 pin power connector going to be adopted?

I love the fact that MSI keeps stepping up with their design. Absolutely love the aesthetics of the things these guys produce recently. The MSI X99S SLI Plus and MSI X99S Gaming 9 AC look seriously amazing imo.

I know opinions are divided on that subject, I personally think cables will look better on this board with the way it's setup now as opposed to right-angled connections.
