Hi all,
I'm setting up my first PC build and was looking towards getting the ASUS Z87-A because I've only heard positive things about it and it seems to be one of the most solid motherboards out there.
I realize now that the ASUS Z97-A is out and only about $15 more expensive, and it seems to only be better but honestly I just can't seem to understand the motherboard lingo no matter how much I read into it, so I'm wondering if I'm losing anything by going for the Z97-A instead of the Z87-A?
Will the 97 have a greater chance to bug out for example because it's relatively new? Are there any missing features? Or is it simply the better buy?
I've tried solving this myself through just reading but couldn't, and I know Tom'sHardware always has great feedback/advice so thanks in advance for any help!
