I am going to be upgrading to either a Core i5-6600k or a core i7-6700k, and am currently looking at motherboard options.
I was initially going to go with an Asus Z170-A, but Microcenter doesn't carry that version
However, Microcenter carries the Asus Z170-Pro ($189.99).

Would this be a good alternative choice for a motherboard?
Microcenter does have Z170-A model for MSI, but I don't have much experience with MSI boards.
Due to a prior bad experience some years ago, I am reluctant to buy my CPU / motherboard online, hence my purchasing a motherboard / CPU from Microcenter.
I guess my question, would be which of the available Z170 motherboards sold my Microcenter, would people recommend I get?
