I am stuck at the moment as i dont know what is better out of the z87 saberooth, ASUS Maximus VI hero and ASUS Maximus VI gene, help me?
 
Solution
The Asus Gene board is a Micro ATX and that means it's a smaller board for smaller cases with not much room. The features are similar to the Hero but the available Pci-e slots are limited. The Hero board has more features and Pci-e slots for future expandability. Given a choice with a case with the room the Hero board would be the better choice.

That is a hard debate as all three are really good motherboards. I bought the Z87 Sabertooth last week and got home to find out that for my birthday, I had received the Gigabyte G1. Sniper 5. In this case, I'm going to sell the Z87 Sabertooth, though I know it is a great board.

Definetly hero i went with it, has more room than gene and less price than sabertooth. Its great for ocing i got 4.7ghz at my i5-4670k. Also if you do high ocing i would suggest H100i extreme for it. Probs best sealed kit atm at market.
