Hi,

What is the best Mobo that ASRock has to offer ?

I want to buy two Samsung 950 PCIe/NVMe and put them into a RAID (will be running Windows 10).

I don't want to OC, I just want a stable, fast/powerful system.

I read something about the Z97 Extreme9 that it has a PLX chip to handle direct data transmission between the M.2 SSD's and the CPU, but I don't know how easy is it to setup to boot using the two Samsung 950 PCIe/NVMe in RAID.

I also like the Extreme11 and also the Extreme7, any input would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm not concerned with the graphics at all, so as far as I am concerned I will use two monitor inputs that already exist on the motherboard (if that will help the speed any, if not then I can add a decent video card).

Thanks :)

But still no OC'ing? More an overblown desktop machine?
