NOTE: I tried several times to post this thread and kept getting an error. So if it appears multiple times I apologize.

What brand of Z87 motherboard would/did you use for your build around Haswell and why?

What features (besides over-clocking) do you like about a particular board?

What features do you feel are nothing more than marketing hype on these boards?

I am still in the early stages of researching components for a build around Haswell, and I certainly appreciate any feedback you have to offer.

Thank you very much!

Asus has the best ahndle on the Z87 chipset, so I'd look to those first, then the Rock and finally Gigabyte - after those three the Intel is a choice if all you want is stock settings, they don't OC well, EVGA and MSI suffer from poor Quality Control and support (and lots of DOAs) I won't even consider their mobos for client builds, if a client insist, I send them elsewhere, lost income....yes....but the headaches that often come with these makers just aren't worth it
