Nice looking. Personally tough I dislike how close the X16 are to each other. 

Intel 4790 K - R9 295X2 - Gigabyte Z97-SLI - Corsair Vengeance Pro Black 1866 CAL9 - Corsair HX 1000 -Samsung 850 EVO SSD - Samsung HDD - H100I - Corsair C70 - G400 Logitech - Asus VS247H - WASD custom mechanical and QCKPAD! 

Staples of LTT: Getting an 4690 K will resurrect your lost family members, AMD = More heat thus AMD = Satan.

rather average board aside from the great looks.

 

there's better options unless you're deadset on black/white.

it's bottom of the barrel but looks nice

 

spend 20$ more for a decent Z97 board

 

it has some undefined issues

there's no redeeming traits other than the fact that its cheap and looks nice, pick something else.

money isn't a huge issue, so what board would you recommend to fit a black/white build? If it's all black I can live with that
