MSI X370 SLI Plus,
Gigabyte AX370 Aorus Gaming 5,
Gigabyte AX370 Aorus Gaming k7,
MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon,
MSIX370 Krait Gaming

I am looking for the best board that gives the most out of OC, GPU base performance, efficient memory performance and good BIOS. However, I haven't been able to find out the best out of these; they all seem great for the specification. What are your thoughts?

Money is not a factor here.

I have the MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon, i went with it as it has 2x M.2 slots, I now have zero hard drives in my computer, 2 nvme evo 960's, 1 for the OS and 1 for games, and an external 3tb USB hard drive, for downloads, music and movies etc.

As for overclocking, im running my R7 1700 @ 3.9ghz and have no problem running my ram at 3200mhz which is full speed for my ram, I cant comment on the Gigabyte X370 boards, but I had a Gigabyte AB350 motherboard for 2 weeks and couldnt wait to get rid of it, what a pile of $h!} to say the least, exchanged it for an MSI B350m Mortar which was a great board and pushed me to the X370 Gaming Pro Carbon.

I will say the Gaming Pro Carbon comes with a better audio chip than the Krait though, also cant...

If you are looking at x370 boards, the far and away best is the ASRock Taichi. Per reviews and personal experience, I am very pleased with it and it gets you more white than black, but still in that b/w mold. I wanted to like the Gigabyte boards but of those you listed, I was really wanting to like the Krait but didn't see many reviews at the time I ordered so I went with the Taichi.

Check around here for other threads on some of those boards and maybe you'll find some helpful comments. You need to look at feature sets as well. Most of these are close in your wish list, but the Taichi is far and away better rated at this point in time.
