Better than ECS GANK MACHINE though xD
You can have a rave in your case.
I guess this means that anyone religious or atheist should not buy this board ?
It will be a good competition to the ASUS ,GIGABYT gameing X99 board. I see only an improved model 9.

OMG!
They should of done it all white with the color options lol.
And they have to put names like this on it so it sounds like it's a $300 motherboard.
Only thing i like about it is how many SATA and USB connections it has the res seems not needed for my needs even more so price tag.Little Devil sounds better to me even more so if it's red.
I wishing we could have the X38 days back with naked ass copper which is the only time i like any motherboards
I think the adjustable LED's is a great thing but has a bit of a problem when you consider the board is painted red (err, the heatsinks at least).
As for the garish branding, it's a bit OTT for my likes and I agree with the general consensus - variable LED's good but why oh why make the damn thing red? Chrome would be far better for multi function LED's.
And just because the OC socket works good on one board, and adds uncore...doesn't mean it will on another. I got a few OC socket board that can't clock worth a damn. MSI is pretty late to the game here, so I have high hopes for this board. I had been asking for such a board since X99 launched, actually. Alas, I didn't get a sample of my own.
