MSI Z170 Krait Gaming Motherboard Being Teased
That's black and white already, September 5th Intel Skylake processors will launch. And alongside it again a new socket (1151). For this the series 100 Intel chipset motherboards will be released. You guys already have seen quite a few of them, but check this MSI Z170 Krait Gaming Motherboard out.
The MSI Z170 Krait Gaming can hold up-to two graphics cards, two PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slots (x8/x8). It has an 8-phase VRM for the processor and comes with four DDR4 DIMM slots, supporting up to 64 GB of dual-channel memory
The board comes with MSI's new MSI AudioBoost 3 audio solution and a Aetheros Killer E2205 gigabit Ethernet jack (not too popular these days).You will spot the typical six SATA 6 Gb/s ports (two can convert to SATA-Express 16 Gb/s port) and also an M.2 slot. If you are on of the 1%, you can use DVI, HDMI, and or a DisplayPort. MSI Z170 Krait Gaming will launch with Skylake, Intels Core i7-6700K and i5-6600K "Skylake" quad-core processors, in august 5th.

Not bad, they have though of everything skipping RGB.
I'm getting sick of whole RBG crap, Most of my casing don't have windows because I want silent experience.
RGB should be stick to mouse and keyboard. Even I don't about RGB on my keyboard and mouse. Functionally and quality 1st, looks is only second.

Yep, the way it should be.

Such a bad layout for the SATA ports, and an unnessessary PCI slot. I could live with the usb 3 header facing upwards, but ghod thats bad. Sad :\. Otherwise the board looks good, i like the asthetics.

Actually that looks pretty decent. I wonder if that 'path' of lighting they let run upwards at the right side of the board (passing by the sound chip) actually is shining white then.
