Hi iamnoob 🙂
I think the Maximus vii Formula will pretty much be the top platform for gaming. The hero is good too but the Formula is positioned higher in the lineup and I presume has more features...though of course it has not been presented yet!
Also the next lot of CPUs from Intel is almost here so i would frankly wait a bit to see what haswell refresh offers at the high end....Devil's Canyon.
I think for a mix of gaming and OCing though it would be a very nice board...looking at current and past Formula models.
The PSU I would advise get the best you can...it is the heart of the system and an often overlooked part of the build....Seasonic make great PSUs or Corsair AX series...
RAM...whatever size kit you get make sure it is one single kit...don't mix kits even of "same" make and model. I put same in commas because they are not..one kit is binned to work as a kit not with other kits so to fill all slots get a 32 GB quad channel kit.
