"Not only does it have the higher end features, it looks the part too. Again, you all know me by now and I love understated styling in my old age. Black is the new black on this board. Only a couple of red highlights ‘de-cloak’ this board from the stealthy all black look, so it should go well aesthetically with a lot of themes."

"I love the look of the EVGA boards and have been pleased with all that I have used thus far. The X99 based FTW was no exception. Navigation inside the UEFI was easy and intuitive. I like that the vast majority of overclocking options one needs is all in one section and the rest of the configuration options are just a tab away, giving it a pretty ergonomic feel.”"
