I saw a P4PE mobo from Asus today called the Black Pearl...is there anything special about this P4PE motherboard?....has anyone used this one before?

I've not used it but it sure does look aesthetically awesome. I would like to see that heatsink in action and on the A7N8X dlx board.

They're cool. The Black Pearls are just fancy versions of the plain motherboards Asus puts out. I wish they made one for the A7N8X. It really adds a nice touch to a custom system. You'll definitely want a window in your case to show it off.

Looks really cool. Have you seen the 360 Degree Rotation Fan. I think it would look nice in a windowed case.

Have you also seen the Soltek's Golden Flame Nforce board. All yellow and gold. Looks cool.

I just grabbed one over at newegg...i would get a sis655 mobo but i cant afford the mobo plus another stick of ram right now....
the first thing i will do is pop that 360 degree fan off and place some artic silver 3 on the northbridge :smile: and yea it will look cool in a lit window case
