B85 G43 is the closest blue ATX mobo u can find... in which only 3 slots are useful. The rest are useless.

How abt h87 for gigabyte? I was looking at that. Although the raid feature might not come handy for my friend but i doubt he mind.

H87 D3H??? It only got 6 pci slots. Shortchange you the 1st pci-ex1 slot at the top. lol

But if budget allows, den go for it lor.
