At this point its not about a performance gain its the feature set that really sets it apart.

Exactly. And ROG boards are famous for their reliability, quality and OC'ing availability. (Not talking about LN2,as that is not for all)

~~This~~
I guess there is not much room to play with perfomance on this platform, so feature set has to carry the day.
This board certainly has the features on it,.............

GPU: Diamond H7870 GHz Edition (times two) in crossfire. SSD: Kingston 120GB SSD Now 300. DVD Burner: Plextor PX-L890SA. HDD: WD 1TB 7200RPM 64MB Cache (times two) in RAID-0. PSU: Rosewill Hive 750W Semi-Modular 80+ Bronze. Case: Rosewill Blackhawk With all fans replaced with Enermax (120mm & 140mm) TB Silence w/no LEDs.
