The Foxconn BlackOps
The Foxconn BlackOps is a full ATX motherboard that looks positively congested with components! Take a look at the layout. This board measures 12" x 9.6" (30.5 cm x 24.4 cm) so you will need a full-sized ATX case for a comfortable fit.
The first thing that stands out is the copper Quantum Cooler with its heatpipe snaking across the motherboard. The water cooler block was installed by default but you can easily swap it out for a fan or an extension tower. The back of the motherboard is bare except for a metal brace for the VRM heatsink. We will take a closer look at the other components but first, let's take a look at its full specifications :
