Title: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: runn3R on September 16, 2010, 09:53:08 am

Well I do like the black board but I would prefer to see it with the UV reactive slots rather than just plain black( that way Gigabyte can keep it's "corporate blue" when under UV light and look just black the rest of the time). I must admit to liking the styling also especially the heatsinks, looks the business and powerful.

I also like the new black board, It looks mean and powerful and the new heatsink design also looks impressive.

I couldn't give two hoots what colour a board is, it's a tool in my mind, I would rather Gigabyte spend time and money on keeping high standards of quality.
I do appreciate I am in the minority, the bulk of the buying public are influenced by looks.

Really like the idea of a Black motherboard. Is it going to be only used for Intel boards or will the AMD boards also come in black?

Interesting question virtualcrowbar. The AMD platform always seems to come a poor second in these situations.

I would think that if they make the decision to go with the black boards that it will be across the range totally.

Ok, me likes ;D. Before viewing the video I thought it didn't look all that great but it is nice. It's more of a grey color rather than full black, though ( and that's good ). Kinda metallic grey ???

I really do not care either so your not the only one. Don't like windowed cases either. I did hate the pink boards MSI had and the nasty tan boards Asus had. If I could pick the color of any board it would be black with gold traces. Emerald green with back or gold traces would be cool also.

that would rock, i vote for it

Yes it could be the new corporate image and would get a lot of people buying the boards. I think runn3R should put it forward to HQ.

Well I see that tartan is not an option, so I think I will stay with blue, It seems that everything is black now and sometimes hard to read small print :)
Title: Re: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: Dark Mantis on September 30, 2010, 10:32:02 am
I'm all for tartan too, as long as it's the Black Watch Tartan ;)
Title: Re: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: absic on September 30, 2010, 10:32:15 am
Trouble with a tartan motherboard is that it would have a VERY limited market. We all know how frugal the Scots are with their pennies!  :D

Ahh   DM     I think I have you converted now, How about some tartan water for your cooler.
Title: Re: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: Dark Mantis on September 30, 2010, 11:28:23 am
Ah. Perfect! As long as it is pure highland water. ;) I am just wondering where I am going to get the matching Tartan lights though ???

I think I will write to coolmaster and tell them to paint the inside case tartan..we could rename it.
HAF-PINT TARTAN SPECIAL ::)

I like it Jannie ;D I reckon it would take off ;D You'd have the Tartan Army queueing up for it.
Title: Re: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: absic on September 30, 2010, 12:08:03 pm
So, that would be how many? ???  With such a limited demand the cost would be too much!  :D
Title: Re: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: Dark Mantis on September 30, 2010, 12:10:12 pm
No the cost wouldn't be that much. A tin of tartan paint and a HAF case. No problem.

Well, I would like a little more creativity and selections:

Hot Pink [my wife's favorite color]

Banana Yellow [color of my dream car]

Candy Cane Red and White Lines [just in time for Christmas and because I really like that flavor]

Yummy!

Soar

I just gotta see them build a mobo like that ;D Should look even better with some UV lights.

Title: Re: Which colour of motherboard would you like?
Post by: Greed4Speed on January 08, 2011, 08:05:59 pm
My vote is for black.  Do like the idea of uv reactive slots, keep to light blue on those.

black for me. My current motherboards are blue (gigabyte), green (HP - not sure of the actual manufacturer), and the other one is intel (i forgot the colour)
