I'm gonna build a new rig very soon and I wanna know what you guys think about it. I'm currently considering the AsRock Z77 Extreme6 and the Asus Maximus V Formula, I know that the Maximus is obviously the better board but I'm not gonna do extreme LN2 cooling etc, the only reason I'm considering the Maximus is the colour and the fact that it is ROG and its kinda prestigious. The AsRock board is way cheaper than the Asus one and it has most of the functions of the Asus boardhs to offer, but the theme of my overall build is red and black, do you guys think the gold caps will spoil the whole colour scheme? In the end, which board will you guys recommended I get?
