You cannot go wrong with either one, because I add the link for the review z87-a, you can see it can match up the high end MB. And I used the gigabyte MB because I like the dualBios function, but asus has more color on the board. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/motherboards/2013/10/17/asus-z87-a-review/1
Or just pick the Z87-A.
