This is the straight OC right (about $200, not the $400 OC Force)? I've worked with one and it's a decent mobo, could have done better with at that price point with the Asus Pro or Hero, the OC doesn't OC as well, or handle DRAM as well, but from what I've seen Asus has the best handle on the Z87 and Haswell. Hopefully they get a new BIOS update out which should help with the high freq DRAM issues

Good to hear that i would be happy and what about the life span?is it good for years to work smoothly, as i won't overclock too high just average.
