    The EZ probe voltage connection is pretty neat. Which voltages can you measure with it?

    I like several of the features like the sideways power hookup, that's nice for cable management. I also like the PCI-E switches which should be on all boards.

    People imagine only now Intel Skylake 6 cores, fluxless solder on Z170 Classified.
    6 cores, DDR4, USB 3.1, 20 lanes for SATA and M.2 devices... PLX Bridge...
    OK no Quad Channel but that's not important for games at all. 
    But Intel don't want to give 6 cores...
    With Haswell E is different situation, processor is huge, when you look him you have confidence that good watercooling will really cool him down.

    It's a nice looking board with a lot of features but I'm a little confused about the triple BIOS giving you the option to run three different profiles claim. My Z97 motherboard has a dual BIOS switch and my intention was to load all of my max overclocking settings into BIOS A and leave the other at stock speeds but whenever I changed from BIOS A to BIOS B I had to reactivate Windows. I was baffled because nothing in the PC was changed except the position of the BIOS switch.
