Hey guys, sometime near the 16th of February i will be building a fairly overkill PC,

 

Question here is, what motherboard should i use for features/value: x99-A or x99 Deluxe (both asus)

 

At some point i will definitely be overclocking the CPU to stretch a bit more life/performance out of it

 

Does the x99 Deluxe have many features that make it worth the price? (pricing is in AUD, $450 for x99A or cheapest deluxe i could find was $570 others were around $715+)

 

Rest of build:

 

H110i GT cpu cooler

2 x Gigabyte g1 GTX 980ti

16gb dual channel 2666mhz ram (no brand yet)

intel i7 5820k

2 x 500gb samsung evo

NZXT noctis 450 case

HX 1000i platinum PSU

 

Acer XB270HU 27" IPS 4ms 1440p 144hz GSync monitor
