Good day guys,

So I'm building a mid-high end gaming pc with the components I mentioned in my past question.

i5 6500
ecs h110m4-c3d
kingston 4gb ddr4
palit gtx 1060 6gb

just recently i've really considered replacing my board to a higher quality one with nice features, aesthetics and overclocking abilities (though i don't plan on extreme oc). i also plan to upgrade to the 6700k in the near future so it makes sense to upgrade my board first.

my options are :

Asrock z170 pro4
MSI z170a-g43 (not sure if same as sli plus)

mainly concerned with debug led availabilty and aesthetics that would match with an nzxt h440 razer edition..

i tried reading reviews but want to hear from actual people who might have had good experiences with these products and know the ins and outs of them.

which of the the two would be the best?

thanks for your answers!

Well, that may be hard, because not everyone may have tried out both mother boards.

the reviews you are also written by actual people too. I will say that as far as reputation goes, MSI takes the lead over ASRock. I have a Gigabyte Z170 board, and it does just fine. If you have a debug LED, I would get that as it will help you troubleshoot down the line.
