Hello I am building my pc first time. Processor is 6700k. Stuck between two motherboards:
1. Asus z170 Pro Gaming
2. Gigabyte z170x gaming 5
May be bios of asus is better or has some extra features but what I have heard that this model has problems. Asus one has whopping 11 bios updates and gigabyte has only 4 updates. What's people point. The reviews are false or just bitter truth about asus.

According to newegg and some of my other fellas, they are complaining about that ASUS Z170 &Pro Model. Its better to go with Gigabyte, and this model is all stable. I'm using different Gigabyte Mobo and didn't personally used it but my friend has this Gigabyte Mobo and its all fine. Asus is one of best company but it doesn't mean it makes all model perfect. z170 has many updates because of issues in it, after many complains ASUS started releasing updates. Gigabyte Gaming5 is already almost fit & stable so it didn't need too much updates.

Gigabyte have the smallest RMA% rate, so basicaly the Gigabyte boards are "better"... About bios updates, don't look at the number os updates, the quality of bios is not related with number os updates dude xD

Both bios are stable and good for use and they are better than MSI bios, for example...
