Ooh that's handy, fits right into my time frame for my 3 yearly PC upgrade, will definitely take a proper look once released
Not as sexy looking as the gigabyte ones, but the real benefit here is that they are not gigabyte ones.
I really hate all the ridiculous marketing applied to 'gaming' gear.
'Reactive Armour'?! C'monnnnnnnn. It's a heat shield.
I still don't understand what makes a motherboard "gaming"......and in recent times it has become even more silly to market a mobo as a gamers board.

A valid point, any board that runs in a reliable manner could be described as such; the differences seem to rely mostly on the bling.
All the cases I have ever had have been windowless so I just pick whichever has my favored feature set at the time, mind you the only board I have had fail on me was an Intel branded workstation board.
Oh and are those XCOM bods brooding in a generically angry way at the top of the picture there?
Does Z170 motherboards supports DDR3 memory as well ?
The only real question I have is how much are these things going to cost at launch. That's the only thing that'll decide whether I pull the trigger or not.

Very nice, although that Krait edition is grabbing me more.
The more one seeks, the more one finds and so you realise there is a lot more to be found.
I'm less put off my the heat shield and more concerned with the Mystic Light that has been transferred from the side skirts of a 1 litre Nova onto the edge of this mobo.

Not even sure why I dislike these boards so much
