I was wanting to ask a simple question(or at least simple in my mind), which motherboard is better:the ASUS ROG VI Hero or the TUF Sabertooth. I am looking to get the Z87 version. My build is this: Intel i5 4670k
EVGA GTX 650 2gb Superclocked 128 bit GDDR5
WD VelociRaptor 10000rpm 32MB Cache
G-Skill Ripjaw X Series 8GB(2x4GB) Sticks 240-pin DDR3 2400mghz
Thermaltake Smart Series 650w 12v ATX
Coolermaster CM Storm Scout 2 mid tower Case
I am also getting the Rosewill AIOLOS PLUS 120mm fan and heatsink for my processor as i plan to do some minor overclocking and I heard the Stock fan for the 4670k is not all that great. Also i understand that with the Sabertooth i would not be able to use the full 2400mghz for my ram and that even for the Maximus VI Hero it would be a RAM overclock. My general build thought was to make a somewhat lower budget gaming PC. I play RTS games like Starcraft 2 and Warcraft 3. So the nature of the games require a more processor intense requirement, which is why i felt i could somewhat skimp on the Video Card. I am thinking about upgrading the GPU to the GTX 760 in the near future but for now I would just like to know which is the better board comparably.
Thanks.
