-The audio chipset is different.

-The pro gaming one supports Intel Extreme Memory Profile (XMP)

-The pro gaming one has 2 more USB 3.0 slots

-The A one has a PCI slot

-The A one supports Supports NVIDIA 2-Way/Quad-GPU SLI Technology, while the gaming one Supports nVidia 2-Way SLI Technology.

 

If you want to see the whole thing yourself, here's the link: (sorry that it is in romanian, but you can still see the differences) http://www.pcgarage.ro/compara/1104973,1105018

Again, both do.

 

OP, I usually advise the following: if you don't know what's the difference, 9/10 it doesn't matter which one you pick. And on the other hand, if you DO know what's the difference, then you can decide for yourself which one is best.
