The X370 SLI PLUS's aesthetics are very basic, and it doesn't light up like most other motherboards.

There are white LEDs on the back of the motherboard near the audio divide, so the line of division lights up when the motherboard is turned on. Inside a case, the motherboard will fade into the dark.
