I know you know what I like about it nvidia_for_life. Just about everything. The only thing I don't like about it is that it only has 6 sata ports, I wish it came with a couple more but that is because I like adding more HDD's and SSD's. other then that I love everything about it.. I know we already chatted about the board a little but I never told you anything I didn't like about the board.

Here is a pic of my Mpower board just in case you have not seen it yet on here This is my HAF XM case

I have the msi z77 mpower, even though ive only had it for 2 weeks now i have to say i love it, it looks amazing with all the led's and the features it gives is over the top for the kind of price it comes at. Its amazing at overclocking, right now i got it at 4.5ghz with 1.2v stable with a msi gtx 660 ti PE and it runs perfectly and very stable, i think youll love it, just buy it and dont look back. The only thing i dont like is the yellow stripes, i wish they made it blue to it can match the gtx 660 ti PE other than that its fine. Dont have pics atm but i got it in a 600t white and it looks amazing.

Thank you. the 650D is a good case choice :). When I bought the Mpower board I really wanted a lighting card to go with the board but I bought the 7950 2 weeks after the came out about a year ago,So I'm hopping and prying that when the new 700 and 8000 series comes out that msi still will go with the lighting themed cards. Thats really the only thing that I think sticks out to much in my case. I have not had a chance to mess with the AVEXIR's yet but I want some so bad :). I like my G.Skill memory that all black because it blinds in with the board more but I 'm really getting into the black and yellow theme now. The AVEXIR sticks would mach beautifully with the board

You can take off the yellow heatsink tops and paint them separately from the board

Here are some pics of a guy that took his off on OCN ( this is not my board) but it is the z77 Mpower board

Me to but I do assume that if you wanted to paint the yellow on the heat sinks it would be very easy to mod but to be honest with you I really do like the yellow and black. I just can't wait tell they make some yellow and black fans that can go with this board that are good fans with good air flow :)

True, I really didn't look at it that way> I do like my bitfenix blue led fans. I just wish they would make something like that in yellow just to see what it would look like with the board
