Hay guys i am building a mini itx computer and i am confused between these two motherboards i-e Asus ROG maximus impact vii or Z97 i plus.

I have seen a couple of reviews on both and i-plus seems like a good board but impact vii is topping the charts as one would expect.

I am currently living in Beijing and i-plus is availalbe for 1100RMB (190$) while Impact vii is for 1800RMB (300$) now my question is whether spending extra 110$ on impact vii are worth the performance gain i would get from the motherboard especially in terms of overclocking and sound.

Thanks

Probably not work the performance difference, no. Its a cool board and has great cpu power on board so overclocking would be better in the long run, but still, 110 could buy you something else, like a better cpu or gpu that would show more gains. The plus will still overclock.

actually I already have a GPU (780 Ti) from the last build and going for 4790k so I don't think it could get any better than this in terms of GPU and Processor but yeah I could spend the extra cash on a cooling system such as corsair h80i. What do you think about the quality of the sound card in both of these motherboards ?
