What is strange about this Sabranco motherboard is that unlike previous generations it is not a simple carbon copy of the ASUS Z170 Sabertooth with a bit of white paint, this is an entirely different motherboard design from ASUS, designed to give us everything that Intel's Z170 platform can offer, but it is expected to come at a more reasonable price than previous Sabranco style motherboards.

As I have said before the ASUS Sabertooth Z170-S has all the features that a normal user would need, with an M.2 slot for Ultra Fast NVMe storage, several PCIe lanes for your GPU requirements, USB 3.1 ports, USB Type-C and plenty of SATA connections for your storage needs.  The only thing that I could say is missing from this motherboard is a U.2 port, though considering that that is a feature that is only present on >£200 motherboards at present we can understand why it is not on this more affordable motherboard. 

 

 

 

So pretty much its z 170 sabertooth in white but they completely forgot about that 24 pin connector...   :huh:

It's a Sabertooth... so where's the thermal armor?

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

My thoughts exactly.

Also while white pcb is nice, I feel like they added too many gray accents on this.

no thermal armor

black ram slots

black pcie slots

z97 sabertooth was MUCH better

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

What happened to the Z97 white version? I was waiting for that one, then I had to buy the MPower. I prefer that one... :(

Same feeling here. I believe China has more exotic color schemes and companies seem to wanting to push us in that direction.

Think of the MKII...then make it a white motherboard.
