ASUS Z99 is a great serie. They are all-Intel models (chipset, video, wireless), they are
light, and they are sold without Windows. ASUS definitely has to compete with itself.

S*it, how wrong I was. Asus Z99Le uses A8LE motherboard with Atheros 5006EG (or 5007EG?) card
: PCI ven:dev 168c:001c, subsystem 1a3b:1026 . Never ever buy it in your life. There will be
neither working madwifi/ath5k driver, nor anything working opensource from Atheros. Trust me
