The "difference that really matters" depends on what it is that matters to you. There are several differences between the boards, the most obvious being the size, slots, and Gen 3 PCIe.

Im planning on getting intel i5 2500k, 2 fans, cpu cooler, 650w power, ssd and hard drive
What can u do on Gen 3 PCIe?

PCIe Gen 3 is the latest generation of the PCI Express interface for graphic cards. But cards are backward compatible with older generations of PCIe.
If you don't understand the differences between those two boards, perhaps you should do a bit of reading before you build.
