What motherboard?

[TubsAlwaysWins]

What X99 motherboard is better for the price? The ASUS ROG STRIX X99 Gaming or the ASUS Sabertooth X99 TUF? This would be with a i7-6800K Probably

Overclocking is a huge thing. Looks is also another huge thing

6800K because im assuming its quite a step up from the 6700K. I am 99% sure I won't be able to afford a Godlike Gaming motherboard

But would it really be worth having a $600 motherboard for a $450 CPU?

EDIT: Im also not a big fan of Killer Ethernet

If either of those motherboards haven't been out on the market since the other day when Broadwell-E launched then you're going to run into the issue of whether or not the BIOS they have works with the 6800K. Asus has a technology that allows you to update the BIOS without a CPU called Flash Forward I think but not sure about anybody else.
