Pretty simple really, looking for a majority white MOBO for a "white out" build. I've looked at the ASUS Sabre tooth and that seems to be the only decent option, however it is a tad out of my budget. 

 

>Ideally I'd like it as white as possible WITHOUT MODDING OR PAINITING

>Under £200 (£150 would be spot on) ($229-$305)

>Available in the UK or for delivery to the UK

>Socket type for a Intel I5 / AMD Phenom II or better

>At least 2 PCI-e slots 

 

 

Form factor is flexible (I'm not buying this for a case, I'm going to build a case around it... yes, build a case), but preferably 

ATX > Micro ATX. 

 

Thanks

Don't know if you'll find one for under 200£ for a while but this one gets pretty close.

 

MSI-Z170-XPower-Gaming-Titanium-Edition.

What generation Intel i5? What chipset?

 Any tbh, newer the better but inside my budget. My current rig is an AMD Phenom II black edition so anything that is better than that would be great. 

 

 

 

Thanks man :)

Are you looking for the Z97 Chipset, x99 or Z170 Chipset?

 

MSi Krait edition is not bad for the Z97 and X99 platforms.
