Now I see a reason for the PCI-Ex16 slots to be completely different shades of blue. At first I was like huh? Shame :shadedshu

Liking the memory slots. It's real pain to get memory sticks out of most board, as they just have to stick them right next to the graphics card, even when there is room in the motherboard to move them up.

Don't like the babyblue part, rest is ok. Funny how empty the PCB looks, almost makes it feel like a value board. But no northbridge is one less thing to worry about.

I like how the bottom of the ram slots (closer to the pci-e slot) do not have the levers for pushing the ram out. When I remove ram from my system, I only unlock the top lever and pull the ram upwards; installation is the only the reverse action. Anyways, with the bottom levers removed, there won't be any foulplay with the graphics cards nemore.

Don't forget guys, 4x 2.0 = 8x 1.1. Won't be as bad a bottleneck as you think it would. Oh and P55 is unofficially confirmed to run CrossfireX and SLI.
