The subject line says it all - which is the better choice? The two motherboards are the same price, and other than the Pro also supporting wireless (which is a non-issue for the planned use) have identical (mostly) features. (Multi-GPU is a nice option, though not planned - both boards support it.) PCI support is not present on either board - further, I have an existing PCI-E sound card (therefore, onboard sound is only an issue for OS X).
