Motherboard choice

[Craftsman_2222]

I'm having a tough time deciding whether I should go for a ASUS Rampage extreme or X99 deluxe motherboard. I don't really care about price, I just want to know which motherboard performs better for gaming purposes. Also, if other motherboards perform better I would really love some recommendations.

No motherboard will realistically give a difference in gaming performance - that should not be your deciding factor. They are both technically equivalent as far as PCIe and LGA2011-v3 is concerned.

all motherboards perform the same....

what matters is the CPU and GPU

 

motherboards just have different features and additions

look at the specs list and decide which motherboard has the stuff you want

[Killervolt]

There is pretty much no difference in gaming performances when selecting motherboards. Get whatever has the features you want/looks coolest/is cheapest etc.

Rampage V if you want a red colour scheme, on board WiFi, and the great Supreme FX onboard Audio

ASUS Deluxe if you willing to go White and Blue with all of the above features except the sound solution being a pretty decent Crystal Audio
