GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-SLI Intel Z97 ATX Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-Z97MX-GAMING 5 Intel Z97 Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-GAMING 3 Intel Z97 Motherboard
or if you can recommend something else in the same price range
will be used with intel core i7 4790k or 4770k , r9 290
 
Solution
Everyone praises ASUS, but they have the same DOA/return rate as MSI. EXACTLY THE SAME. basically any of the big 4 are perfectly fine and the same quality.

I personally recommend Gigabyte Motherboards for the $100-$140 range. I have had the best luck with these and aside from MSI, have the most user friendly BIOS.

ASUS makes the most durable motherboards. The R9 290 is better than the GTX 970. You can also get a maximus vii Ranger (if you can find them) . The Ranger is a solid 150$ ROG motherboard such as SupremeFX, Intel LAN, SLI or CFX , Keybot, 12 phase VRM
