The motherboard shines forth in a red look, looks in my opinion very nice. The motherboard also light LEDs, and although the sound card and its lines and the POST codes. The ROG logo on the chipset will light only when Maximus VII Hero version, shame really. The mainboard has a lot of promise on the website of Asus. What is wrong is the high-quality processing, because I can not complain. But all the promised features are empty promises. Most programs you get on the motherboard CD are partially catastrophic designed and confusing and useless. I thought as the Game First of the motherboard without software goes, and for example, I hear a difference in my headset thanks to Supreme FX and the promised boost etc. I was also pleased to get an antivirus program included 1 year long. And there was an old version of Kaspersky who do not even let update properly. What can I say, I feel veräppelt of all empty promises. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this motherboard because of the quality, appearance and UEFI BIOS.
