Question Asus ROG Maximus XI Extreme

[afkiller369]

Hello all,
I was looking into some good motherboards for water-cooling, but I couldn't seem to find many posts on this specific topic. Right now, I am planning a custom water cooling loop and to avoid some of the wires, I wanted the best motherboard for water-cooling, preferable with integrated sensors if possible. I hear the Asus Maximus XI extreme was pretty good with water cooling but the Asus Maximus XI Hero looks a bit more price friendly. Price isn't too much of a issue for me so I was wondering which of these boards (or maybe some other board) is best for water-cooling.
Thanks!

If you wanted to go all out on water cooling, the Aorus Z390 Extreme Waterforce Motherboard (which can be found here) is specifically designed for water cooling, so that would be a great option. But if you want to stay on the ASUS side of things, both of the motherboards you mentioned should be great for what you need to do.

I was also looking at that one. It seems like a really good motherboard and I like Gigabyte as a company. Does that motherboard have the flow and temperature sensors built in?
