*** mmmmm pretty! ***

Love the fact most of you have overlooked the 7x PCIe slots! :p

Price tag is good really for the feature list, the looks don't really matter (even though this is an incredible looking board!) as this is a workstation orientated board, not really enthusiast (even though it is more than capable) so quite surprised the price is so low!

One shortfall/feature overlooked is with the incredible processing power of this board (many GPU's, 8 RAM slots, 12 SATA) is the lack of ECC RAM support? Slightly baffling! :confused:

This would be an incredible number crunching board. Shame GPU mining is dead ;)
 
I read that it wont matter as the board has PLX chips so a 5820K will work at the above as the chips will provide the extra lanes.

I dont know if it quite works like that, I dont think you can mix them, so either cpu lanes are used or onboard lanes are used.
 
Each to their own I suppose, personally I find it quite refreshing that it doesn't look like it was designed by someone working at the Early Learning Centre.
 
While it's probably not the most exciting colourscheme, to me it looks very classy and screams quality. I guess the Z87/97 boards did too a bit with their gold bits, but it was a bit to 'blingy' and gold doesn't go with much :p
