Finished Looks
The Colorful C.B360M-HD Deluxe V20 is a good-looking board, and it matched very well with the components of my test setup. The aesthetic is neutral enough that I would not worry about matching parts with it. Even with the small form factor, everything is accessible when fully assembled, so there is no need to remember a special order of operation for component installation.
The only illumination on the Colorful C.B360M-HD Deluxe V20 is a strip of red at the bottom left of the board that is reminiscent of the lighting on ECS Lightsaber boards. It is just of a solid color, not RGB, and cannot be dimmed or turned off. I like the look, and I think it fits the board, but I can't imagine it costing Colorful a significant amount to make it RGB with some very basic software control, even if it was only from within the BIOS.

The Colorful C.B360M-HD Deluxe V20 uses a fairly standard turbo profile. As always, thanks to Seasonic for providing the Prime Titanium PSU.
