Not to be outdone by the competition, ECS (Elitegroup Computer Systems) has brought with it at CES 2012 a couple of motherboards based on Intel's upcoming 7 Series chipsets - one is a micro ATX model powered by the H77 chip, and the other is an ATX solution boasting the Z77 flagship silicon, the Z77H2-AX.

Part of the ECS' Black Series, the Ivy Bridge-supporting Z77H2-AX features a black PCB, a 12-phase power design, a quad-heatsink cooler, four DDR3-2600 memory slots, six SATA ports (two are surely 6.0 Gbps), and three PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots.





ECS' motherboard also packs two PCI and two PCIe x1 slots, an mSATA connector, a debug LED, Gigabit Ethernet, four USB 3.0 ports, 7.1 channel audio, Bluetooth, two eSATA ports, D-Sub and HDMI outputs, plus Power, Reset and Clear CMOS buttons. No word on availability but it's likely the Z77H2-AX will ship around the end of Q1.

ECS Black series boards are the best looking ones on the market lately. Not like "Black" stuff from Sapphire that has half of the board in blue... Layout is also pretty good except maybe heatsinks around socket are a bit high...
