Its for gaming I already have FX 8350 and Sapphire r9 390x Vengance 16gb ram ssd Samsung 850 EVO 250GB


And I wanna change my MOBO But I am not sure what to choce between:

Gigabyte: GA-990X-GAMING SLI
https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-GA-990X-GAMING-SLI-Motherboard/dp/B01FIAW5JU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478549855&sr=8-1&keywords=Gigabyte+GA-990X-Gaming+SLI     

Or

ASUS 970 Pro Gaming/Aura
https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-970-Gaming-Aura-Motherboard/dp/B01A33PHLA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1478550047&sr=8-1&keywords=aura+970

Thanks you in advanced!

Normally there is consensus in the web that the ranking of the most well known motherboards from the Taiwanese brands are
1.MSI
2.GIGABYTE
3.ASUS
4.ASROCK

I would say go with ASUS not because is better than GIGABYET but because GIGABYTE has almost closed deals with AMD and so has done MSI, the only one who keeps updating their AMD boards are ASUS and ASROCK so based on my analysis above the clear choice is ASUS as it will keep updating their board with drivers and everything.

In the end you choose which you like more.

I also think that its your own opinion because they are both good and there is nothing with them wrong to be honest.

I got Asus cuz is more upgradet for amd

I've had a LOT better luck with ASRock over ASUS on motherboards.

 MSI - my sample size is too small to figure, but I do NOT like the rather junky BIOSes on the boards I DO have - and have the same issue BIGTIME with ASUS recent stuff and crap BIOS limitations.
 Haven't worked with recent Gigabyte motherboards.
