  1. that is one big big mobo! lovely design, I like their boards this generation, very attractive designs.

  2. been wondering about this board since it was announced. Id like to see a review of some of the maximum boards soon too. this MSI board is on my shortlist.

  3. They make the sexiest boards but gigabyte Z87 are giving them a run for their money this time. Its a kick ass board, but im not moving to haswell, its a sucky generation. waiting on the next one, quite happy with my 3570k
