I am trying to pick a mother board 


 


Everyone seems to recommend this one: http://www.newegg.co...N82E16813157511


but I really don't like the color scheme


 


Could someone recommend a motherboard with similar features with a neutral color scheme for a around $100?


 


This is my build btw: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/TqmsTW

Pro Tip: don't use flash when taking pictures of your build; use a longer exposure instead. Prop up your camera with something (preferably a tripod) if necessary.

if you use retarded/autistic/etc to mean stupid please gtfo

Blue seems to be the norm for most "non-gaming" motherboards, and your color scheme seems to be white/black.

 

Im not sure about a white/black h97 motherboard, but for the Z97 chipset I think there is the MSi Krait Series, however your CPU is locked and a Z97 wont benefit you...

 

Maybe something like this? : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132121R&cm_re=h97_motherboard-_-13-132-121R-_-Product

yes I was thinking of getting a Z97 board and upgrading to a OC CPU in the future. Is this a logical tactic?
