which is the best between these two, i was gonna get the hero but now im not that sure there both around the same price
I'd go with the Hero ROG.... but just because it looks nicer.
I believe that the Hero is more overclockable.
From what I've heard, Haswell is more temperature restricted than anything else when it comes to overclocking. So I doubt that much difference would be seen between the two.
OP, check here form some info about 1150 mobos.

That's a good point. The ROG is still aggressively priced, and you're giving yourself that potential margin. I bought my ROG and Haswell with the intention of adding a watercooling loop. So you do have to back it up with sufficient cooling.
Also, OP didn't mention if he wanted the best overclocking performance, the most features, the most stability, etc. Define "best".
The Hero is a nice looking board, and i think it probably will be more overclockable, but the Asus Z87 pro will also be not bad, it has bluetooth and W lan onboard, the Hero doesnt have that.
If you want a board that has good overclockability and also Wlan and bluetooth onboard, for a good price, then i would say look at Msi Z87 Mpower.
But if you want to stay with asus and don´t care about bleutooth and Wlan, then the Hero!
