If you go ASR and if you may want to consider M.2 storage now or in the future, you might consider stepping up to the Extreme 6 which has and "Ultra" M.2 slot (M.2 3.0 x 4) rather than the 2.0 x 2 on the Extreme 4.

The ASrock has more power phases 12 vs 8 which would theoretically provide more CPU stability. I've always loved Asrock motherboards. I have had 3 computers with them and never any issues.
