take a look at the articles / comparisons here of Z87 boards - there's a bunch to pick from and you might like one or another based purely on layout or port count or even colour. heck, I personally like the ASRock Z87M OC Formula simply because of the yellow accents! (and if I had extra money to blow, i'd use it for a build for no other reason)

I've used Asus, Gigabyte, and now ASRock, and so far never had issues with any, but always found something I didn't like after a year - mostly due to layout or ports or ability to expand. stuff I basically DIDN'T look at or consider when buying in the first place.
