If the lack of WiFi support on the Z97-PRO is an issue for you then the Z97-PRO (Wi-Fi ac) model is the solution. It is an identical motherboard but comes with an 802.11 ac WiFi module.

For the connectivity love the ASUS Z97-DELUXE is sure to please. In addition to having all the new Z97 features the Z97-DELUXE brings support for the new ASUS Thunderbolt cards and it has ac WiFi.  Just looking at this motherboard and we can tell it means business. Being connectivity focused it also has SATA Express but we are slightly surprised to see no M.2 present.
