the ranger has a few little things to help with troubleshooting and Overclocking. as well as 2 more SATA slots a 1 more fan header, and a dedicated pump header.

 

the Pro has better/more rear I/O

Just look at the specs. If you can see differences, then your are perfectly capable of deciding yourself which if they are worth it or not...

 

But if you can't really see the extra stuff one board has over the other, 99% chance you don't even have a use for such perks, and thus they are effectively identical boards. In that case, just buy the cheapest / prettier one.
