    I'm all about white with ONE colour for the clips and stuff - like the Sapphire boards. It's a shame they were such buggy crap, because they were NICE looking.

    I guess i"m in the camp with White or black and ONE component colour. I don't mind blue or red or all that stuff but it makes it hard to mod around.

    Transparent of any form would be awesome, but I doubt it's possible... :(

    I prefer they just used breadboards to be honest -- for that, "retro" look :)

    Probably so many tracks that it wouldn't be transparent anyway.

    You do know you can paint your own motherboards? There is a guide floating around somewhere on the forums too.

    White reflects hit, right? White then. Or, failing that, translucent.

    Ditto, primarily because I've only ever seen one white mobo, and that was on a rather nice case on here...can't remember which though.

    The Lanpartys are black and it looks good, unfortunatly I can't see much of it anymore because two graphics cards, sound card and the hsf blocks most of my view of the motherboard.

    Blue and while/silver are nice options. I'd avoid green for any mod (even a green case mod).

    Once this thread has pretty come to an end, maybe you guys should sending your findings to the mobo makers, more white mobo's would be brilliant :)
