Hello,
I finally decided to upgrade my old system (Asus V rampage,i7 5930k) and i was wondering which asus motherboard will be better for the i9 9900k.
I was going for the Hero,but i heard it has higher vram/cpu temp because of the 4phases design and coming from the Rampage i wanted something solid to be the base of my machine.
What other alternatives there are ? Apex,code ? what do you guys think ?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: going for 5ghz-5,1ghz OC and 360 AIO Corsair for cooler.

Hero, Code & Formula have 4 Phase.
Extreme and Gene 5 Phase.
Apex 8 Phase.
For me the clear winner is the Apex, the price point is incredible. Assuming you live where you can get one. Here in UK it costs just 330 GBP and is cheaper than Code, Extreme, Formual.
Let's put it this way. On Formula you can cool your VRM with build in waterloop, on APEX you can take the whole VRM heatsink off and throw it away and it still be probably cooler.
