Hello fourm,I have been looking for a MOBO for my build for a while now. My theme is Black and green. Any recommendations? If not any Black Mobos.

If it was for an 1150 socket then I did find boards but none that I would recommend (you can filter by color at bottom left). For example, if buying a new board for 1150 I'd get either H97 or Z97 depending on whether you overclock. No point getting a Z87 for example because the newer "9" series also supports 5th gen Intel CPU's (not all, just ones that come out for this socket).

Of those I found two all-black but they were priced higher than you might like and also not traditional form factors. The were mini-ITX and E-ATX (E-ATX requires a compatible case).

Such as:

I hope you find what you're looking for. I remember Gigabyte had a Green/Black "SNIPER" series at one point.

Again, can FILTER by color at bottom.

Update: I found more motherboards. There is "Black/Green" but also "Green/Black" in the list. Try going with "Black/Green" The Z87 seems to be gone, and like I said I'd prefer to see Z97 instead.

Not sure I see anything you'd like there that's still available.
 
I personally have the B6 and it's a pretty good board, great quality, great audio and Devil's Canyon support out of the box.

Only qualms I have about the board is that it is a bit less wider than standard ATX boards and the board will flex when trying to add RAM when the board is installed. Just be sure to install the RAM before fitting it in the case and you'll be fin.
 
Thank you all for the time,I have Found it! The gigabyte G1.SNIPER B6.It has more than what I expected!The LEDS on the Motherboard add a new aspect to my case (NZXT H440 BY RAZER).Thank you so much!
 


Make sure to update to latest BIOS, and also install some of the software.

Don't install everything, just what you'd use. I'm not sure where FAN CONTROL is done from though perhaps it's in the "APP center"; your motherboard manual should tell you that.

Fan control works for the CPU, but case fans must be variable.

I suspect that board supports both 3-pin and 4-pin CPU's for fan-speed control but some modern boards only support 4-pin (My Asus Z77 Sabertooth supports 4-pin only but later boards brought 3-pin support back due to complaints).
