My opinion is bias lol
Is it worth the extra $200 over the E-Gaming? Probably not. I personally just couldn't resist as imo this MB looks amazing! Performance is 100% there too. Overclocking is super easy, and the layout is good as well. My nickname just so happens to Rog as well so that's a definite plus!

This motherboard is a savage
This thing is a boss!. So much room for overclocking, and literally everything you could ask for in a motherboard. I do not like the shared lanes for m.2 and GPU however I would never run that many m.2 drives anyways lol. You only need 2 really large M.2 drives to have enough storage for just about anything you could want. I have this paired with a Ryzen 9 9950X3D (beast mode), an PNY RTX 5080 and TridentZ Royal 6000, sitting inside of the HYTE Y70 case, and more RGB than a European rave.
