wtf Why are all Skylake mobos all black? PCB+connectors, all of them. Black only.
Is this shit dictated by intel or what.
Because no one wants your gay pride ram slots
because colourful motherboards look horrendous

Yes, black color scheme on electronics is so fucking edgy.
Muh fucking TV is edgy as fuck
Muh Phone, edgy too
Edgy computer case, edgy wallet FUCK even my car is edgy!

It's basically the same syndrome as this.
Dumb minimalism fad we're currently in the thick of due to the next generation losers having grown up and finally infiltrated the job market and trying to push off their laziness as a thought out choice.
I wouldn't want that colorful mess showing through my window

only AMD would be stupid enough to design chips so hot that it requires a fan to be mounted to the motherboard
>caring what parts that you will never see outside of assembly and maintenance look like in a box

Only Intel would be stupid enough to design chips so hot that it requires a fan to be mounted to the mother board.
This one also has a heatsink for the NIC. Guess Intel is really shit at designing.

>one gaymer x99 board has a fan on it, therefore all intel chipsets are hot
paid AMD shill

Aesthetics.

So you prefer the "unicorn toddler jizzed into every part of my motherboard" look over a professional one.
What kind of turbofaggot do you have to be to give the remotest fuck about the colors of your mobo
>>51453022
>there are people alive right now who unironically want that gaudy, obnoxious shit to come back
New boards are still worse though I guess, I want unbranded blue/green shit to come back. It triggers me hard that all of the "good" boards are edgy garbage covered in retarded branding and chinglish buzzwords, is it so hard to ask for whitebox parts that look like tools instead of the physical manifestation of "look at me!"

If I'm going to spend a bunch of money on a build, why would I settle for mediocrity? I like surrounding myself with nice technology that looks as good as it runs.
