Actually, both are exactly the same. The Asus one is just more expensive but from what I see the MSI one only has the option to install 1 M.2 SSD, unlike the Asus one you can install 2. One Gen 3 and one Gen 4 mounting options. If you have a Ryzen 5000 CPU, it's also easier to do a BIOS update to get the CPU to work at all. I hope I was able to answer your question.
