Hi, I'm going to be upgrading next week and just wanted some input from people with more knowledge than myself. I'm planning on getting an i5 4670k, SC ACX 770 and 8GB Corsair Vengeance 1600. My original plan was to stick it all in an ASUS Sabertooth but I've always wanted one of the colourful Gigabyte boards. I've started to look at the G1 Sniper and the GA-Z87X-OC, I've read around that the ASUS has better features but I just wanted some input based on my requirements. I plan on attempting an overclock between 4.6GHz and 4.8GHz which I'm assuming all 3 boards would allow me to achieve (based on my little knowledge of oc), but I would also probably be adding a second 770 somewhere down the line. The price difference is also appealing since the ASUS is around £180, the Z87X is around £158 and the G1 is around £116. Would the ASUS still be the best option or would I not notice any difference going for one of the Gigabyte boards?
