    Looks very nice - would have been tempted if the PCI slot had been in a better position!

    Looks kinda like a P6X58D-E special edition. That's no bad thing, I am guessing it wouldn't be to hard to put a military styled PC for that shooter fan mate you might have. Not saying its my taste, but combined with some of IN-Wins's similarly styled stuff and those KFA2 GTX 460s or Asus's GTX 460s I think it would be doable.

    Really? I thought the ugliest was the DFI LANParty boards, with Chaintech's gold themed boards after that.

    I love the colour scheme in this and at £150 for all the features and heatsink design is quite good.

    I wonder if this would be stable in a system with little or no air flow over the motherboard.

    Also I wonder if they will produce a AMD version based on the 880gx or fx chip.
