Honestly just looking for the best motherboard with my build, not too worried about price i wouldnt mind staying under 300 but if I dont have a choice its cool.
I have been trying to research what I could but I havent had much luck, so keeping in mind im new to overclocking ( learning) what has a decent bios to learn with/OCs the best? :)

 
then I see they have the hero ALPHA, is that even worth the extra money? As long as my SSD and HDD can be used and everything else idk whats different


 


The hero Alpha has an AC Wireless 2x2/3x3 on the motherboard itself, saving you the money on AC adapters if your're not using Ethernet although getting a separate adapter would be better.
 


Wired is always the best choice anyways 😀
 
I've heard I'm wireless right now, but that will change once I move in with two friends we are sharing a house been friends for 10+ years so I'm not too worried about issues plus my friends an it/ networking in college so he's fairly knowledgable to learn from for that
