that is not a sapphire board, its a old AMD/ATI reference board for reviewers

Yep. But AFAIK, this board was actually manufacturered by Sapphire.

I was part expecting a white PCB... like the good ol' days.

I had one of those, looked really cool.

This mobo looks like it has no options for other cards if you use dual slot GPUs (what an awful design)

I was part expecting a white PCB... like the good ol' days.

These were really old days (for mobo manufacturers) and sapphire always mish-mash something with color of their mobos. These whitees were nice but not really appealing for longer setup (I like nurses more than mobos ) especially when they get dirty
The last white mobo was based on rs690 aka. 690g chipset 3yrs ago all newbies since that come with black pcb (maroon in fact ) but pure black msi mainstream mobos i like. only bad thing is low manufacturing quality from series to series and pcb price cutoffs small pcb --> bad pwm heat dissipation (==achilles heel with many msi)

that is, my friend, is NOT made by Sapphire.
It was made by company called STURGEON.
