2way-SLI, Intel NIC, 32Gb/s M.2

Nice to seen mean green back as a option.
 
I like !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is actually the first Z170 board that I actually like and I think if anyone has the budget in GH I will be post an epic themed build using it :p
 
That Corsair kit almost looks like it was made for the older Sniper board. I think it'd look quite nice tbh :eek:
 
I'm surprised that no RAM company has offered a Motomaker-style, 'RAM maker' service yet... I bet they lose out on a lot of RAM sales from simply not offering their products in the 'right' colour :p

If only I had waited 6 months for Skylake.....

Looks really nice, I have the Avexir RAM and totally agree that a DDR4 version would look good in this.
 
Lovely board. Yes, Avexir Green DDR4 is needed. And it would be nice if the different colours were priced more equally. With the DDR3 Avexir kits, the price of different colours varies hugely most of the time. There's probably a reason, supply and demand and all that. But perhaps the gap could be lessened.
