(I apologize for terrible english)

I need to choose one of these motherboards but i cant because they seam to be very close to each others. The only thing i do with my comp is gaming.I'planing to buy a 770GTX and another one in like 2 years to go SLI. Iam also going for a "K" (I5 4670K) processor but i'am not sure i will do overclocking. Also my case is a antec ninehundred.

I just want a stable/long lasting motherboard for my gaming needs

Need to choose between:

-ASROCK Z87 Extreme4
-ASUS Z87-PLUS
-BIOSTAR Hi-Fi Z87X 3D
-GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-UD3H
-MSI Z87-G45

I like Asus because i had asus motherboard all my life and never got problem with them.
I like the MSI one because there is a dragon on it and i think it look very good :)

Also if some one can recommend me a good 16gig ram kit, it would be very apreciate (150$ max)

Out of those, I'd agree and go with the Asus board, with the 2nd choice being the AsRock. I've been looking at the AsRock Fatal1ty Z87 Killer board too. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-fatal1tyz87killer It's a good value and seems to have all the options I'd look for in a good board.

For Ram, you'll want the fastest Ram in your budget that is at CAS 9 or less. So, buying in the States right now, this is what I'd buy: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-memory-cmy16gx3m2a1866c9r

As i see its a 15$ difference for an extra 3.0 PCIE and the possibility to use some realy expensive 3000MHZ memory.

Thanks for your advice, will probably buy that ram today since there is a 13% reduction + 20$ gift card on it.
