I'm looking for a Z170 motherboard and I'm trying to keep a black and white build. Definitely don't want a cheapo motherboard and want to retain connectivity and features.

 

Ive seen the Z170-A but don't want to deal with its infamous IO shield, so I found the Z170-Pro. (Not pro gaming) Would this mobo be the best in my situation? 

 

Edit: An all black motherboard could work well too.

MSI Titanium Edition

ASUS Maximus Formula VIII (You can change the LEDs to whatever color)

 

Just two off the top of my head.

MSI Z170A Titanium is probably the best choice here
