    I would check out OCN forums to see what they have to say about each motherboard. 
     
    If it was me, i would hold off until at least Intel Icelake is released. X299 not worth it (IMO) if you mainly play games on the system.

    While asrock has really stepped it up I would go with the Asus at this level of a build.


    Edit*
    I see you went with the Asus, good choice!
