[larsaellea]

hey guys i'm kinda new to the whole forum thing from linus but i've been a subscriber for a long time and i have finally decided that after learning more and more about pcs and fixxing them i decided its time to build my own mid-high range pc build.... with a gtx 970 and an i7 4790k how could i go wrong? the motherboard.... i want my entire pc to be built around a blue theme i alrdy picked up a case (the corsair 500r with some blue LED fans) and a set of ram 4x4 configuration clocked at 1866 mghz and it is DDR3  from gskill and most of my other parts picked out i only had 1 thing left to do and that is pick out my motherboard... this is a real problem for me at the moment i did find a really nice looking mobo from asrock the extreme 6 lga 1150 z97 chipset i thought this was an easy pickup then i read some reviews on it.... alot of complaints about the usb ports and the device software not working with it... i need some feedback on if this board actually has problems with all that stuff and if it does then i need some suggestions on a board .... my price range is about 180$ and i only have 2 requirements.... i need it to be blue and i need it to be a z97 chipset.... other then that the range is open if yall can help that would be grand thankyou

The Extreme 6 seems like a good option if blue is the way you want to go

Afaik some of MSI's motherboards also have a nice black and blue color scheme

Check out a few Gigabyte ones they come in all kinds of colours. In blue a lot
