I have finally gotten around to organizing my work area... an end of the year thing. While categorizing various parts, I ended up with one IO shield I that I couldn't label. If anyone can ID it for me, I'd appreciate it. It may have be an Asus. I believe Asus stopped using the grounding-fingers style and went to this foil back design instead for a while. But can't remember for sure.

You're right about the foam padded I/O shields being a thing from Asus. That foil and emboss was by them and them alone. It was probably a half decade until other brands picked up on the idea.

^ That's what Google's reverse image search led me to...maybe that's who it belonged to.
Yes, the Asus Sabertooth X58 board is close. But not quite right. I'm glad to know that it is narrowed down to one manufacturer, tho. Thank you.
