I'm building a rig and deciding between two motherboards. I had to get one with a Optical S/DIF so I can use my old headset. Cash is Australian. The two are:

Asus Maximus VII Ranger ($239)
MSI Z97A-Gaming 6 ($269)

I don't care much for the USB 3.1 just quality of overclocking and gaming.
Leave any suggestions if it is black and red and has the optical port i was talking about.
