So I am getting either the Lian Li 011 Vision White or the Lian Li 011 Vision White Compact version.

I am thinking about getting a motherboard with the cable connections on the back.
Do you think these boards are good or not? Please include reasons.

If I do get one, I am thinking of getting 1 of these:

Asus TUF Gaming B850-BTF

or the:

Gigabyte B850 Aorus Stealth ICE.

The price difference between the 2 is only $15 so that is not a concern.

Thanks for any constructive input :D

Any money you save will be wasted on a white GPU
They always cost way more for no reason

E/ no opinion on the BTF build though.
The Auros stealth ice will probably look better

Gigabyte looks cleaner , but personaly i trust Asus more + if you allready going with back connector then asus have theBTF connector so if you pickBFT gpu you dont need to use ''faulty'' 12vhpwr AND hide all cables for super clean look


all the power too gpu will go true motherboard , no cable's neeeded

With only a $15 price difference between these options, the decision ultimately depends on your priorities: Asus' established BIOS ecosystem and reliability track record versus Gigabyte's superior board layout and design philosophy.
Both motherboards will deliver exceptional results when paired with the Lian Li O11 Vision White case, creating an exceptionally clean build with optimal cable management through hidden rear connections.

i've always been more of a fan of ASUS than anything else, assuming you're running amd as well?

not sure the difference in aesthetics though
