I am really torn between these two motherboards! The P8Z77 has a LOT of new features, like Thunderbolt, HD Cache II, mSata onboard, and more, but it is not a ROG gaming board. The Rampage is clearly a hot board! Fewer features that I would like to have! I just don't know!

Help me out Please!

do you plan to use Thunderbolt Hd Cache II or mSata? and plus it shouldnt be the end of the world if it isnt marked ROG, its still a solid built board

Thanks for your response nna2! I think after watching some Asus YouTube's on the motherboards, that I will go with the ASUS P8Z77-V PREMIUM Motherboard. You brought up a good point about it not needing to be marked ROG, and it has some cutting edge new features. I like being a little more future proofed, and having the Thunderbolt port helps that. Unless someone offers a better suggestion for the Asus Rampage IV Extreme! Thanks again for your input.
