MSI KRAIT Hardware

Hey Guys

Did you see the awesome MSI Krait Edition harware they showed at CES 2015 ?

I love the black and white theme, understated beauty at its best.

Only one problem here, dust

Its actually quite epic especially with the release of the 960s, and there is an nzxt case that goes with that the s340, u could get an epic looking rig for a price that isnt to high, there is also some nice kingston Ram to go with that

Day 1 you have a white theme
Day 360 you have a brown theme

Motherboard will be in a chassis with no form of light to brighten up the view from the inside, so it may get dirty. No one will really see it unless you open up the case Unless, some of those hardcore PC modders have a perspex sidepanel with CCFL.. then yes

Then why pay a premium for pretty components when your just gonna hide them behind a solid case and layers of dust. Builds like this are for show, not to hide under your desk.

In my case, it's not about all about the looks. It's about the features/performance the board offers which is actually the most important part.

Here is where I call the joker, I'm sure there is a board with similar specs and features at a lower price

This is a great look. But as mentioned before, the dust. For the first month or two you will clean everything religiously, then less and less, eventually the dust will be so thick you cant even see the white. You will decide to spend a whole day cleaning your baby only to discover that you've waited too long. Your previously white theme can now go work in parliament. You can never get that shit white again.
