I'm trying to figure out a good motherboard for my pc build. I wanted to have the potential to sli or crossfire. The computer was to be used for gaming. Let me be candid, I'm new to this and I am fairly ignorant about pc hardware. I received help constructing this build and the motherboard recommended to me was the ASUS Maximus VI Hero ATX. I would like to know in terms of quality, performance, and features if this is a good motherboard or if there is another one that would be better. I do not wish to go over $230 unless there was a good reason for it. Please explain yourself to help me understand the decision. Thank you for your help.
This is my build so far:
-Intel Core i5 4670K Unlocked Quad Core 3.4GHZ Processor LGA1150 Haswell
-Corsair RM750 Silence ATX 12V V2.31 80 Plus Gold Modular Power Supply Active PFC 135mm Fan
-Plextor 128GB SSD M5 Pro Xtreme 2.5 SATA3 6GB
-Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64Bit
-Noctua NH-D14
-EVGA GeForce GTX 770 1046MHZ 4GB
-Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200RPM
-Fractal Design Arc MIDI R2
-G.SKILL Ripjaws 8GB 2X4GB DDR3
