I've recently used this motherboard in a build and it is probably the best overclocking board i've used apart from it's MAX AC bigger brother.

It has all the features anyone would care about, and the BIOS is very nice to use. It sports a sleek yellow and black scheme, and has an incredibly beefy power delivery system.

This board is also great. It won "best overclocking board" on the Z97 chipest and it has a sleek black and red design with an i/o protector. The bios is decent. It has a solid power solution.

i am partial to the hero, but for budgeting, the Z97A is just as good, just not red.
