Z97 Which one should I get?

Im stuck between 2 motherboards to choose from:

The MSI Krait z97: http://www.ncix.com/detail/msi-z97s-sli-krait-edition-db-103434-1259.htm

or the Asus Z97-E: http://www.ncix.com/detail/asus-z97-e-atx-lga1150-ddr3-1a-103886.htm

 

What would be cons and pros of the two?

Which one would be better?

The black and white board by MSI is alot easier to do a themed build in the future, rather than the black and gold by Asus but as of right now looks dont really matter

I vote Krait due to price and the fact that ASUS's customer support sucks, also the krait board has really good reviews from forum members

 

Edit: @JLozares Follow your posts, as for pros to the ASUS board, idk of any and honestly think there aren't any
