Hi guys, i will buy the motherboard for Intel I7 5820K. I have a custom liquid cooler and i would overclock I7 5820K at 4.6Ghz. Which should I choose a motherboard? Sabertooth vs ROG for OC and Gaming? (I am gamer and game developer) (sorry for bad english)

Rampage V all the way. But if you're using a specific color scheme other than red and black I'd suggest the Sabertooth It's easier to paint it to the color scheme of your choosing

|CPU: Intel i7-5960X @ 4.4ghz|MoBo: Asus Rampage V|RAM: 64GB Corsair Dominator Platinum|GPU:2-way SLI Gigabyte G1 Gaming GTX 980's|SSD:512GB Samsung 850 pro|HDD: 2TB WD Black|PSU: Corsair AX1200i|COOLING: NZXT Kraken x61|SOUNDCARD: Creative SBX ZxR|  ^_^  Planned Bedroom Build: Red Phantom [quadro is stuck in customs, still trying to find a cheaper way to buy a highend xeon]

Rampage V for sure, you will more than be able to OC to 4.6Ghz with that mobo :)

I personally like the aesthetics of the Sabertooth X99 over the Rampage 5. So I would go with the Sabertooth X99

Either board will not guarantee you any clock speed, it's entirely dependent on your CPU.

 

Considering the Sabertooth isn't out yet, I'd wait to see where the price is compared to the Rampage.

LanSyndicate Build | i5-6600k | ASRock OC Formula | G.Skill 3600MHz | Samsung 850 Evo | MSI R9-290X 8GB Alphacool Block | Enthoo Pro M | XTR Pro 750w | Custom Loop |

Daily | 5960X | X99 Sabertooth | G.Skill 3000MHz | 750 NVMe | 850 Evo | x2 WD Se 2TB | x2 Seagate 3TB | Sapphire R9-290X 8GB | Enthoo Primo | EVGA 1000G2 | Custom Loop |

Game Box | 4690K | Z97i-Plus | G.Skill 2400MHz | x2 840 Evo | GTX 970 shorty | Corsair 250D modded with H105 | EVGA 650w B2 |

No difference in performance. Get the one that looks better / is cheaper / has the features you like better.

Core i7 4820K  |  NH-D14 | Rampage IV Extreme | Asus R9 280X DC2T | 8GB G.Skill TridentX | 120GB Samsung 840 | NZXT H440  |  Be quiet! Dark Power Pro 10 650W

like @SuperPug says

 

go for a cheaper X99 board 

 

Asus is overpriced 

 

Asrock or MSI or Gigabyte have decent X99 boards

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

I think the Sabertooth is more of a durability board while the ROG board is a gamer centric overclocking board. Although I've seen Tiny Tom Logan's review on the Sabertooth and he said that the Sabertooth overclocks fantastically. I think it just has a cap on the RAM frequency like its Z97 younger brother. Plus, clock rates are a silicon lottery thing anyway so it's all about what you want in the motherboard.

I'm going to punch your face- IN THE FACE.
