Hey guys, I'm looking to get a mATX motherboard and I've narrowed my search down to three:
Asus Z87 Gryphon
Asus Z87 Maximus VI Gene
Gigabyte Sniper GA-G1 M5

Which out of these three motherboards is the best? Thanks in advance.

Yeah Gigabyte has a weird color scheme. Gene has awesome audio with its SupremeFX.
The the board would not bend with a Video Card given that you properly secure it to the case.

Asus Z87 Maximus VI Gene.

If youre building for games then Maximus VI Gene is the best for you. It has an Intel LAN and a Supreme FX which will carry out your needs for gaming.It also has an mPCIe slot for wifi and bluetooth. It has premium capacitors which would be good for performance. It also supports SLI/Crossfire if you plan on doing so.

So yeah :D

Yeah, I plan to be gaming on this. I will overclock some too, I plan to buy the H100i because it's $84.99 right now on Newegg after a rebate. So the flat out best board from these three is the Gene? The Gigabyte board seems like it might have better audio, but eh, I'm afraid the color scheme won't match anything. Also, I'm going to be carrying my pc quite a bit, would I have to worry about the weight of the graphics card (Asus 770) making my motherboard bend or anything? Thanks
