I'll go with the Asus, but for the Gaming-3 mobo, you can get the gaming-5 series for about the same price.

Keep that in mind.

I'd go for the gigabyte board. They're super reliable, and host a wide range of extra features.  I'd also go with the Asus one for the same reasons.

QUOTE ME OR I PROBABLY WON'T SEE YOUR RESPONSE

I'm not too familiar with Asrock...I would go with the Asus or Gigabyte. The Gigabyte is definitely more attractive, but I like Asus mobos for their features and fan control, although I do think Gigabyte has software to do this, not 100% sure. I would go with what features you like best between the Gigabyte and Asus.

Asus. I tend to stay away from AsRock as they are the lesser version of Asus. ... Same company.

uh, no they aren't.

 

 

Originally they were, but not anymore.

 

ASRock is owned by Pegatron.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)
