The board will have no impact on GPU performance. Get whichever is cheaper honestly. I personally have the MSI M7 and got it mainly for looks.

Well both boards are basicly fine.

I personaly like the Asus Z170 Sabertooth Mark S a bit more.

Mainly because of the looks, but also in terms of overall build quality.

I have the Z170 S. It looks so sick - you can look here for my build ;). Both are really good. The Z170 S has an amazing number of fan headers though which is really nice. It functions great, I have no complaints.
