It's a good premium board.
if you a decent overclocker, this board is right choice for you since it's designed for crazy hardcore overclocking.
its offering lot of overclocking features like Dual Bios + switch, debug LED, power/reset switch, pcie switch, and the interesting parts is XMP switch so you can activate your ram xmp profile without entering bios.
another feature is there's a complete full overclock preset for your system.
for example :
if you have i7 6700k in your system, you can easily pump up your cpu clock from stock into 4.6 Ghz or even 4.8 Ghz.
a overclocker team in my country did this with this freakin' insane board.

The Hero VIII is a fantastic board and honestly will probably fit just about every requirement you could have for the next several years. In terms of cost/ benefit I'd personally go with the Hero VIII.

thanks
 
That was what I was saying.
An Asus pro.gaming or Gigabyte UD5 is all you need for many years.
Everything above that is just for specific purpose.
A Board around 165€ has top quality and all the features.
Anything above that is special needs and/or marketing.
Basically there's no Bad Board around 200$ anymore they're all more than capable and fulfill all the needs
You Can go with looks, availability and pricing thete
