Thanks for the replies. I may go with the ASUS Maximus IX Apex then, since it does have removable covers over the LEDs to make some custom ones. Too bad for only the 2 slots for RAM though. I wish there was an Apex with 4 slots.
Can anyone tell me if you can pop out the "Republic of Gamers" cover on this motherboard? Shown here:

I'd like to create my own custom cover to replace this.
Thanks.
