Hey, im debating on wether i should get Extreme4 or Extreme6. I care most about cpu-overclocking, sound and build quality. Extreme6 is about 40 bucks more expensive, what do i get for those 40 bucks?

Actually if the e4's colors look good to you, I would suggest going for it. One of the best in the price range. Offers EVERYTHING you need, just assembled a PC of a friend of mine and used the e4, superb build quality and looks (from what I can tell by the tests I've ran and from what i've seen with my naked eye). But I must say I am really happy with it. I always advice people on getting the Z170-A from Asus or the Z170 Extreme4 from Asrock. Both superb. Both offer everything you might need from a motherboard AND MORE at the $150 mark. Just get the one which fits your color scheme better!

Do you consider e4 a good motherboard or would you suggest something else? I have a windowed case so i care about looks. Also dont like the gigabyte z170 motherboards cause of their flimsy heatsinks and weird form factor (right side of the boards dont align and are left hanging without support, i want true atx form factor). Considering my price range is 100-200$ and pretty much all of the boards in that range are gigabyte or ugly, my options are limited.

Guess its extreme4 then, if its realy as good as you say it is. I was just concerned because looks can be deceiving and maybe it wasnt any good compared to the less pretty ones. However, thanks for ur help Gingerbread
