Is the Asus prime z270a a nice motherboard or is it trash

It's a perfectly fine motherboard, but as with all components, it's more a question of how well it suits your needs; different motherboards are going to work better with different people and builds. What are you planning on doing with this motherboard?

It's got white, which is the best color.
so I mean it's got that going for it.

Most of it is black so I'm sure it will run fast

Here's what you should check out when buying a motherboard:

First and foremost, look at reviews, especially negative ones (if they exist). That will let you know if there are any major flaws or high fail rates.
See if it has all the ports you want on the back. That's usually going to mean USB ports.
If you plan to overclock, or think that might be something you'll do in the future, get one that starts with a Z

Beyond that, features are pretty minimal. Just get the cheapest one from there.
