Motherboard?

[owlz]

I'm currently stuck between three motherboards:

The first motherboard I looked at is the most expensive on this list at £170-£180ish which is the Asus Sabretooth Z87.

The second motherboard is the Asus Maximus VI Hero this is probably the motherboard I like the least aesthetically wise.

The third motherboard is the cheapest; Gigabyte Z87 G1 Sniper, this is probably the best board aesthetically in this list (IMO)

The question is... is the extra money for the Sabretooth worth it? What's the difference? (in big performance or OCing terms)

Edit: the only reason I'm questioning the gigabyte other than the seemingly too good to be true price is that my current board is Gigabyte (AMDFX990) and when I overclock, it reboots a couple of times before trying to boot into Windows which is annoying and sucks!

No love for the MSI Z87-GD65 GAMING?

Haswell overclocking depends mainly on the CPU. You probably won't see any difference with any of these boards.

There are some reviews on the homepage which are worth a read

I've never used any parts from MSI so I don't know what they're like.

Not a fan of red and black motherboards either.

All the Haswell boards are pretty much the same just pick one that suits your needs and has the colours you want and go with it
