Are those for decoration or is it actually that retarded

looks badass >_>

>disliking controllable appearance

>disliking convenience

yeah it seems that this thread has reached peak retardation alright

Once in a time power test and reset button were a quality of life addition on a motheboard, used during build testing. Now they're meme I see.

Pic related board with non meme buttons.

...

That board only has two issues.
The RBG which can be turned off I think.
And the tons of plastic shrouds on top of tiny heatsinks instead of good big heatsinks for the VRMs.

I like that PCI-E layout with the M2 under it.

(you)

>And the tons of plastic shrouds on top of tiny heatsink

the vrms are titanium you dumb fuck

>the vrms are titanium
What did he mean by this?

>needlessly inflating the price on shit you cant see and doesn’t affect performance

I actually like the "integrated" power and reset buttons desu.

>flagship GPU
>$499

shit, I wish

to be fair vega is AMD's flagship GPU despite it's inferiority and it goes for around that much.

You tell me.

>"gaming" UPS

where's the rgb?

Also pic related, gamin' psu

>to be fair vega is AMD's flagship GPU despite it's inferiority and it goes for around that much.

>He doesn't know about buttcoin miners.
Find me a vega 64 for 499 and I will buy 3 and show the receipt on Sup Forums.

The msrp is $700 and it sells more like $1000 get fucked

i'm surprised they sold him anything with hair like that

Hey now
Crysis was pretty good

>disliking convenience
>Game boost: 1-0-11

If you're 8 it does.

that doesn't negate the usability of the the other two buttons and the code read out display

Can you recommend me some non-meme non-gaming motherboards,whitout all that shitty stuff. Both AM4 and LGA.
Maybe with some useful addons,legacy features, f.e. pci slots

Only mobo I have my eyes right now is the gigabyte designare for the TR4 socket so I haven't' really paid attention to anything else.

Doesn't asus still makes sabertooth series mobos for intel tho? They used to be gray / coyote tan with an industrial look on it and in terms of VRMs, pci slots, etc they were almost on par with the rampage extreme series which were their top tier stuff.

>game boost

can someone explain

Asrock X370 Taichi is relatively tame.
Otherwise pick a workstation / server board to escape the gamer brain cancer.

Can't you just power up the motherboard by short circuiting two pins with a screw driver?

>foxconn socket

>Fabricates 99% of all motherboard connectors like PCI-E, Sata, sockets, etc made in the planet.
>Still thinks he can get away from suicidechinkconn
I don't know what to tell you my dude.

Thanks as always, user. Spent some time browsing the major mobo sites.

I have to agree, Sabretooth series for Intel Cpus.

Socket AM4 mobos are really fucked up tho. 98% of them are 'Gaming' oriented. I've seen the Taichi,it's better than the rest.
There's also a couple of sober 350 chipset mobos, but mostly in mATX. No full form factor. No pci /pci-e additional slots

I don't mind in buying one of those 'Gaming' mobos, once in the case i won't be able to see it anymore, but i don't want to pay a premium for a fucking UFO flashing strobe lights from the air vents of my case.

I love video games,but i'm really starting to get pissed about all this 'gaming' bullshit.

Sabertooth and 5 year warranty is dead. Now They are downgraded to 'TUF Gaming' which is a tier lower than even the lowest end of ROG Strix boards.

what is with his JUST hair christ almighty

I like how that CPU Line has NO WAY to supply all those PCIE lanes nor the M.2

its probably some auto OC settings

(You)s are capitalized newfag

The Taichi have many VRM phases but each phase is of mediocre rating and quality. Not saying it is bad, but that is just the case. Gaming boards usually comes with better VRMs, e.g. the Strix X370F have IR Powlrstages (mosfets) which is of very high quality. The C6H/C6E comes with TI DirectFets, again high quality stuff.
Having higher quality VRMs means less heat output at the same current/voltage output

>msi
Not a fucking surprise.. LE DRAGON GAYMER NATION XDD

Looks pretty cool OP

He's the manager behind the counter. The customer is in front of him.

Dis motherfucker doesnt know about the turbo button.

Turbo wasn't on a mobo

Yes, that's most definitely retarded, but probably not for the reasons you're thinking about.
>4 full-size PCIe x16 slots on a CPU with 16 available lanes
>no PCIe switch on board either

GAMEBOOST goes up to eleven. This is serious.

i feel like exposed LED lights would be really annoying if your computer case has a window

my motherboard's debug LED during boot is really fucking with my eyes. I can't imagine what 20 direct LEDs would be like

>if your computer case has a window
Why would any man of sound mind choose a window over a noise-insulated, opaque case anyway?

>GODLIKE
>ENTHUSIAST
>500USD MSRP
>6 fucking sata ports

why can't MSI into 8 sata ports like everyone else? Even their retarded XPOWER TITANIUM X370 POWER only has 6 sata ports.... What do they do with the 2 leftover sata port lanes?

Worse this board is 3 Ethernet + wifi + hell lot of pcie and m2 all starved by absence of lanes

It's because with so many m2 ports it's all gimped plus if you use more than a m2 it cuts even more sata plus thottles due to limited lanes on the chipset.
It's an over featured board for a chip that can't use it all.
This plus all those useless pcie16 slots with only 16 CPU direct pcie lanes.

You can only really use up to 2 gpus or a NVM + 1 GPU on z370.

Thanks for detailed reply my good man

What's that supposed to look like? A stapler gun?

>it boosts your games
>it goes to 11
what is there not to get?

lotes>foxconn

the carry handle of an m16

Is that a door lock?

>front jack headphone preamp
that's actually kinda nice, wish that stuff was standard

>carry handle
upper receiver

...

don't buy this, the gun parts arent real

Oh that's kewl. Are they all customizable?

ZA BOOSTO

...

Not exactly a gun specialist, but I believe that is the gun's receiver. It sort of a platform upon which everything else is built.

Those power buttons are neat if you're short on money and can't afford a case.

...

Tech cringe thread?

>Muh priorities

To be honest those two being reposted so much sound more like a Sup Forums autist who is butthurt some kid has a dad who buys flagship gpus for their minecraft machine.
The only picture who makes me angry is that fat dude in a suit buying all vegas in the store and only because AMD can't resupply the stock so prices end up spiking.

OK, as non neckbeard I see it that since consumer devices don't change that much, since some time, companies need to attract customers. Therefore, they add more "gayming" features as kids and hobbyists are the ones to spend the most money on stuff.

Normies won't be picking motherboards themselves anyway. At best it'll be the "tech-savvy" cousin that plays minecraft and is 13.

Nothing to get mad about, just get one without leds if you hate them.

>dude in a suit buying all vegas in the store
He's solving the Sup Forums problem.

well, maybe in that case you can't afford a 30$ case because your motherboard has a "boost" potentiometer and more fancy lights than a gay bar.

>Only my particular prejudice is justifiable.
Waste of trips and a beautiful post number. Kill yourself.

>be american
>buy newest APACER COMMANDO SSD like the good goyim you are during a black friday sale
>get shot for holding something that looks like a dangerous firearm as soon as you exit the building
dog bless

Most gay bars are actually much more tasteful than gaming hardware.

...

There's been buttons on every non-ultra cheap motherboard I've bought since 2013. They're pretty useful for testing sometimes.

...

Apollo style CPUs?

Not in eastern Europe, then again nothing but distilled existential dread is really tasteful around here.

Kek, virtual reality was JUST ABOUT to change the world since 1989.
It's coming any time now, we'll just have to wait.

Only the beginning. Soon, we'll be forced to run shitty APU's that light up like Clark Griswold's house.

Can't you just power up the airbag by short circuiting two pins with a screw driver?

Some need instant easy to hit buttons during intense OCing, that's what they are for.
