Since I won z68 Gigabyte motherboard for 3rd place modding contest from PDXLAN 18 and would like to do something small modding project with this motherboard for my wife and kids. My kids really love apple because they use it often at school. This motherboard is mac friendly, so I decided to use dual boot Mac and Windows 7 on this.

All parts and being prepared prior to build up

Looks awesome bud.
I wouldn't expect anything less than the best from you of course.
I really like the white. I will also be doing a white mod real soon.
