hi all, i am looking to upgrade my system in the near future but can't decide what to get. i want a good board for overclocking, don't really care about brand, but i want to stay at or below $220. i've been looking at the asus maximus vii hero and it looks amazing, but should i save a few and go z87 and just update the bios!? so really i just want something reliable and good for overclocking. thanks!
 


Get the hero, great board and Z97 is compatible with the upcoming broadwell processors :)

oh nice, so it's not worth going 87 and saving a couple pennies?
