I need help on what Motherboard should I choose for 4690k!

[gelroyliao]

I'm still confused of what motherboard should I be buying. In the price range of $250 or less as much as possible depending on the features of the mobo. I will be running at 4690k and will be doing SLI in the future. I need advice or you might suggest other decent mobo for $250 or less? I kinda like Gold or Red Scheme though.

As for me, I'm choosing between these:
ASRock Fatal1ty Z97X KILLER
MSI z87 GD65 Gaming
MSI Z97 Gaming 5
ASUS Z87 SABERTOOTH
Asus Z97-A
Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 7

*Edit: I realized that Z87 Sabertooth was not already in my price range.

If your getting the 4690K then the Z97 platform would be your best bet, Works too with Z87 but to be on the safe side Z97 should be the only choice and there's no real reason to go for the Z87 platform if your buying new.

Personally I would go for the Sabertooth Z97, Rock solid board

$238 from Newegg

Although it's not gold or red, this is a great board, I can personally recommend this The OC capabilities are great and it's cheap considering the amount of features is has + the outstanding build quality
