I want to overclock my future I7-4970K, hopefully even hitting 5.0GHz. Which motherboard would be better for this, the GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 or the G1. Sniper Z97 or the Asus Z97-A? To my understanding all other motherboards at this price range aren't as good.

4790K* The Gaming 5 does have good sound though. Probably the Asus? They are all almost the same though :p  So it just depends on what colour you like!

They will all be the same, unless you get the really expensive motherboards or gigabytes dedicated overclocking motherboard it won't make a difference.

OK, thanks! Will something like 5.0GHz will be possible with these boards?

If you have very good cooling then sure, why not?
