Off course, I like only heatsink on server motherboards...I would like to manufacturers back that on all desktop motherboards...
ASUS make that for WS series... But always I need something what miss on WS series and than I buy usually something else. Z97 WS had good layot and as I need but I couldn't find ASUS X99 with such heatsink and with small ports. Some sound cards make problems if you install them on x8 or x16 slots and work better on x1 or x4...
Creative example advice to customers use x1 or x4 slot for SBZ. If you install in big slot you can make problem to graphic card and sometimes after restart PC will not regoznice card and you need to reinstall again. Becdause of that X99 WS was not option for me. If I pay cards as 780Ti, 980Ti I could use and 100$ worth sound card.
For me is whole Z170 line is ugly and many others... I like heatsinks as on Z87 Classified, Z97 Classified, Z77 FTW,
ASUS Z97 WS, ASUS X79 WS, ASUS X99 E WS, X99 M WS, X99 WS/IPMI. That's heatsinks, fins, best cooling, what today made is nothing... Only Rampage 5 Extreme is probably high quality, I never hold such heavy box for motherboard and I had ROG boards before...protection shield on ports and heatsinks increase weught, and off course OC Panel.
GIGABYTE last nice heatsinks had on some Z77 and X79 motherboards...
And with heatsinks and color you can destroy image of whole motherboard.
For me even Rampage 5 Extreme is not nicest heatsink, only is much better than most others and I read nice words about that board.
But that mean nothing, people cursed Z77 FTW, I never had so stable system, so long overclocked for 1GHz 30% over Intel Specification, wihout crash 3 years, and she worked as server without turning off.

Hi! To the owners of this board, I was wondering if you can confirm or deny that the WiFi can be physically removed from the board? I don't mean "disabled in BIOS" or "don't install the driver," but remove the Blutooth and wifi card from inside that little silver enclosure without desoldering?
I was told by Asus tech support that it can, but wanted to see if anyone else has poked at the enclosure or opened it.
Thinking of this as a SFF mobo for an application for a client where WiFi signals are not allowed -- or even the POSSIBILITY of WiFi signals being emitted or received.

Nearly all current ASUS Wi-Fi Go! cards can be removed, yes. There are two screws on the back of the board that must be removed, and then the card can be pulled out of the slot.
