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.

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.

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.

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.
