Hello, I am in the process of building a new gaming rig and would like some input from someone else. I am going for an all white build. I got everything picked out but cannot decide on a mobo just yet. My question is a two parter.

 

First: Is there a big difference in the Asus RoG Hero z270 vs the MSI Tomahawk arctic z270. 

 

Second: Does anyone know if the nzxt hue+ will sync the gskill trident z memory rgbs like the asus aurora does ? 

 

Thank you in advanced for any input.

As far as the G.Skill RAM goes, I believe G.Skill has their own software for controlling the RGB in the ram sticks.  It would be nice if you could use the Aura software for it as well though.
