Both boards use Realtek ALC1150 codec, so the sound should be the same. The wireless isn't a priority, but it's something I would like to have. The SATA Express I would consider future proofing. The main problem is that I want this rig to be able to last. My last rig, the one I'm still using (Q6600 and Asus P5K+some random ram), is close to 6 years old. So I don't really want to cheap out on the motherboard. For me the breaking point between these two boards is better overclock ability vs. more features. Tbh, I would have liked to go for a X99 board and a 5820k, but it seems that it's beyond my reach, as the DDR4 ram prices are going to be severe.

That's one of the games I'm sad I can't play. It looks like balls to the wall fun.

So Humanoid what do you think, should I go for the Hero VII or the Deluxe z97?

Yeah I just visited the D-link site, they even said 1300mbit+450. What a stupid mistake to make on a professional hardware review site. Though I think that the speeds they got from the mb still stand, as the router should not be the bottle neck in this case.

For the wireless seeds:http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/asus_z97_a_and_z97_deluxe_motherboard_review,21.html

I found that nothing else gives me that rush of adrenaline.

I like that the deluxe has the wireless+bluetooth, dual lan, and hdmi+display port, but on the other hand the rog board is a better overclocker (almost every site I read confirms this) and is cheaper. As said I will have to think about how much those features mean to me.

LoL, Josh posted that in the attribute thread right here on the obsidian board.

Don't worry I'm pretty sure they aren't going for the low fantasy.

I loved the opening of IWD2 the first time I played it, in fact throughout the whole game I was hoping I would come back to Targos.

Personally I find IWD2 inventory much prettier that the one I saw in PoE.

Hmm you got me stumped, I will have to think about it. Now that I read up on the Hero VII, it a great board, even though it's light on the features.

I will be importing all my portraits from IWD2 anyways, so no big loss there. While the ones shown so far are all great, they just aren't my cup of tea style wise. As for the rest of the things, I think that all the little nitpicks are something that can be used to fixed in beta.

So your advice is to go for Maximus VII Hero? (it's 60 euros cheaper)

So it seems you can even lose health if you stamina/durability is not all the way down. O_o Also as Stun mentioned, copy/pasted icons for spells from IWD2, though it's something that I personally like.

I also like the armors, they didn't end up going for the plain simple armors.

Also looks like there are classic Paladin, ie. Knights devoted to a god.

Very much like what I see. Would have liked to see the full UI though.

Mostly from the review on guru3d, it's not that much richer feature wise, but supposedly it uses higher quality components on the board and most importantly it's not that much more expensive then the pro version. Do you think I'm making a mistake? What board would you recommend?

Whops, wrong motherboard. This is correct now:http://pcpartpicker.com/p/8Qq2WZ

What's funny is that one point it was said that the missile was fired from the Russian border.

A bastard sword?

I like how they say there is overwhelming evidence, when there is no evidence at all... Just lol. edit: And that video at the bottom, just lol. Too funny.

This looks and sounds great. Kids spend their parents money on this game too, and behave like brats too. Trust me played this game long enough to know.
