So I'm building my very first PC and I've narrowed my choice in MB to these two. I know that the sabertooth is ultimate quality when it comes to materials, parts quality and cooling but I'm really intriguided about MSI's awesome looking software for gaming, performance, cooling etc. I was wondering has anyone else decided between these two or could it maybe be possible to get asus rog software for the sabertooth model? My third option was asus maximus viii formula but I couldn't figure out the reason for its high price compared to msi and msi software (don't know if software is the right word for their additional applications for managing performance etc.) just looked a little bit better. So basically it's a decision between solid (MAYBE!?) more quality one and a better one for my hyping :D If you can't say anything else would you people happen to know about biggest differences between msi and asus generally?

honestly, I don't know. i think when you buy a ROG board you get the license or some code that you can use to redeem on software. hopefully that's how it works, because MSI works the same way. the only stuff ROG has that interests people are the GPU tweak and the benchmark tools, which definitely isn't as good as the MSI stuff. and they have close to nothing to do with gaming http://rog.asus.com/downloads/
its mostly for streaming and other stuff. it isn't as plentiful as MSI either.

as of ROG for sabertooth, I actually don't know. it probably only has ROG to make a match with with your hardware.

but I mean I'm still leaning to MSI at this point. if you got ROG onto the sabertooth I mean its just anther board. nothing in particaulr...

ASUS sabertooth is pretty darn good, but I have nothing against MSI military grade durability. Both are very good boards, but as of free liscence D software, Msi is the ultimate choice. I had a look on their site for software, I mean man their stuff is awesome. Plenty of awesome stuff on each

Personally, both are very good boards. Msi bundles the awesome software, and the ASUS is just plain good. Hard choice, but I have to go with MSI. Also because they make the best motherboards that aren't freaking expensive and great. But if the MSI lacks features you need, go for the asus. It has tons of features, so it depends on what you need. Personally again I choose MSI.

But both are pretty expensive boards. MSI makes all around great boards, unlike asus, where the krait and some E boards are tacky. You get MSI software even if you buy a cheaper version. You can look for cheaper versions that have your wanted features.

My thoughts exactly!!! :D If they had all the same software it would be easily the sabertooth because as you said it's plain good. But I'm getting so hyped about all the great stuff that comes with msi!!! And yeah I was at first going with m7 which is 100€ cheaper and that would probably be better for me as the only difference seems to be the OC panel which I won't probably need at least for at the beginning... But there's nothing remotely linked to gaming software that comes with sabertooth, or is there? That's the only reason why I'm prefering msi. I wonder could it be possible to get the republic of gamers applications for sabertooth? Then it would be the ultimate choice
