What does everyone think of the painted PCB?

On Hero and Gene? New design trend started here! You'd be amazed how much energy this took, despite just being a little colour.

The matt looks loads better than the gloss (Y) Very nice 😄

I dig it, its beautiful, also agree with a few others, the more matte color looks much better then the high gloss finish, will also match the powder coat color of any black tower easily (although it could still be gloss but the angle of the photo makes it look matte)

I really really like your separate coloring there under the vrm area, keeping it still inline with ROG color scheme which we all already love

Is that the only area going to get the other color or are there other possible areas to get it?

Cause it would probly need to be moved a bit but I personally at least can imagine the board name could be that color as well and look really clean and sharp, only reason I mentioned it may need to be moved is cause its close to the vrm red and it might add to much

Also what happened to winged chokes lol??


And to the person asking about 90 degree power connector, according to JJ in one of his more recent videos Asus will never do the 90 degree connector as far as he's aware, he said they tried and tested it and it was never able to be as rigid as a normal one and that most of them actually just broke off during testing
