Hi guys,
I am still looking for a replacement motherboard and have got my choices down to the Asus Sabertooth x99 and the MSI gaming 9 ACK, I am going for a red themed build and the Rog board Asus does has too many features I wouldn't use such as the OC panel. The Asus board has an OC socket just like all Asus x99 board so that has made my decision as lot harder the MSI board has features such as Audio Boost 2.0 and Streaming Engine (not sure how good the streaming engine is) basically would the Sabretooth suite a red build and will the OC socket make much difference I plan on running my memory at 2400mhz and my 5960X at 4.8ghz on 1.36v which I know it is capable of as I achieved this on my last board before the board developed a fault where the bios wouldn't display correctly.
