So after hearing that Ivy Bridge is going to be delayed until June I've decided I just can't wait anymore and I really want a CPU upgrade.I'm planning on going with a 2500k and O.C.ing but my budget is a little tight.Max is around $130.So I'm curious as to which mobo you guys think is the better buy.Here's what I've come up with...
MSI P67A-G45 (B3)

ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3

Now I understand the difference between the Z68 and the P67 chipsets and I don't really think i'll use the Intel SRT of the Z68 or the intergreated GPU but the ASRock board just seems like a really good deal for futureing proofing sake because of the PCI-E 3.0.
I'm also a little confused on the gold caps that ASRock seems to use a lot.Are these really better than the other ones? How so?
