[QUOTE="slash/, post: 755281, member: 73213"] I have the Maximus VII HERO, so I'm pretty biased because I love the Maximus line. The only difference between the STRIX Z370 and the Maximus X HERO is that the HERO has built-in WiFi for an extra $50. That way, you wouldn't need to buy a separate WiFi adapter, which would regularly cost you $35. I would go with either the 750 or 850W SuperNOVA. 850W gives you more room for more upgrades, and possible SLI in the future. 970 Pro is much faster than the 860 Evo. 860 Pro is very slightly faster than the 860 Evo. I would choose the 860 Evo over the Pro, but the 970 Pro over the 860 Evo if price isn't a factor. I would go for the 1070 and call it a day. The 1080 and the Ti models are far too expensive, and I think the 11xx series will be overpriced for a good year after launch. For reference of performance, I'm still using a 980 and running most modern games at very high/ultra settings. I got the MSI variant since it was the most overclockable, and OC'd the hell out of it in Afterburner. [/QUOTE]
