Hi,
I'm about to build a new computer for video editing/music production.
I'm looking at: Gigabyte Z890 Aorus Master versus Asus TUF Gaming Z890 Pro Wifi.
Is one inherently superior to the other?

Please, your opinions on which of these (or neither) would be up to the task? Thanks all !

These motherboards are in two dramatically different classes. The Asus one is a relatively barebones overpriced midrange board whereas the Gigabyte is on the upper end of midrange.

MSI, ASRock, Asus and Gigabyte are all fairly similar in quality, but everyone's undoubtedly going to have their own opinion. Generally speaking it's best to figure out what features are most important to you and then find out if those are available on something you can justify the cost of. The pricing and features of motherboards vary far too much to just give a generic recommendation.
