Motherboard Choices

So I wonder which one should i pick, Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming K7 or Asus Crosshair VI Hero? Its pretty much the same board but the Gigabyte is around $20 cheaper.... so what do you think?

 

And by the way is standard RGB strip compatible with Gigabyte's RGB Fusion software & header? Gigabyte uses 5 Pins header instead of normal 4 pins. I've seen many "RGBW" strip from Cablemod, but they don't ship here so that's a thing.... and this is kind of important since i wanted all my RGB to be synced.

Do you see post that complaints about crosshair boards? I guess get the gigabyte one if you are bothered with the problems

Mention me if you want to summon me sooner or later

My head on 2019 :

Note 10, S10, Samsung becomes Apple, Zen 2, 3700X, Renegade X lol

I´d recomend ASUS. I think the header is compatible with standard RGB stripes

I generally like their designs and the asus bord is all black all the color comes from the RGB. So it will fit in with every type of build. And for me asus uefi is the best organized one.

But my biggest point is: With the asus you have LOADS more of IO. its an IO beast ;)

Especially more USB and a USB C Frontpannel  connector

I would go with gigabyte. Can't really tell why but I feel like their mobo's are more stable and professional.
