Asus X99-S, your thoughts?

[smsmasters]

What do you think of this motherboard compared to the deluxe version?

P.S. I've got my 5820K @ 4.6 GHz 1.2625V (set in bios) stable in Intel Burn Test V2 maximum RAM usage. Is this an above average clocker?

I very rarely test that CPU as it simply does not have the PCI X lanes for my systems or benching.

4.6 is a good overclock on any X99 CPU in my eyes.

All ASUS boards are great on X99 as they all have the OC socket so are getting the most ouit of your CPU. I cant see the need for you to upgrade unless its for a feature the Deluxe offers that you currently dont have but really do need.
