Better Motherboard?

[ayyyyZJ]

hey guys, im going to be building a new PC soon and im not sure what mobo to get. the ASUS Sabertooth Z170 S, or the ASUS Z170 Pro Gaming. im going for a white build, but im a really big gamer. the sabertooth looks a lot better, so is that why it is more expensive? is the extra money for the looks? overall, what are the main differences between the two??

Thanks a lot guys, and have a great day!

 

Edit - i will be overclocking my CPU so the better overclocker will be important too.

Sabertooth in my opinion. It's more focused on overclocking, durability and the white aesthetics.

The sabertooth is part of Asus's TUF line of products. They feature greater durability and build quality and are backed by a 5 year warranty instead of their normal 3 year warranty. If you could afford it, get the sabertooth.
