OK it's time for a new mobo and I'm stuck deciding between these two.
Both have reviewed well, although I have heard of some issues with the killer network lab on the MSI board.
The MSI board is cheaper by $30 cad, however, I have pretty much always used Asus boards and never had any issues so I'm a bit wary of going to MSI.
MSI board has a VGA boost feature which could work well with my MSI Gtx 760 gaming card.
Im not on audiophile and the sound will be going through my Gtx 760 anyway.
Help and advice needed. Maybe something I have missed about them which could sway me either way.
