Working on a new computer and I have some possibilities for MOBO. What I didn't get is the REAL difference between them and if I should pay more for the most expensive one.

I'm not gonna do the OC now, but maybe in the future... So that's why I'm chosing z270.

Should I get the less expensive:
ASUS PRIME Z270-K

Medium price:
ASUS STRIX Z270G GAMING
MSI Z270 GAMING M3

Or the most expensive Aoros:
GIGABYTE AORUS GA-Z270X-GAMING 5

In my country the difference between the less expensive and the most expensive are 400 bucks.

Asus Prime Z270-K is ok?
 
Solution
ASUS STRIX Z270G GAMING, I own the msi gaming m3 and im happy with it except for 1 thing, their realtek audio drivers.

the prime z270-k is ok, but i like the build in wifi and the bluetooth, also the stronger pcie slots(which keep your gpu in place is really cool to have.

Another question:

ASUS ATX ROG STRIX Z270E GAMING
vs
ASUS STRIX Z270G GAMING mATX

The second one is micro atx. There's some disvantage on that? Like for example, thing are too close so the temperature will be higher?!

Work. After Effects, Video edition and things like that.

The PC will be in my office, normally temperatures between 20 and 38 at the hotest days.
