I also have the Z87-A and it is great. AI Suite 3 is a great piece of software. Haven't overclocked on this board yet but the review on this board in terms of overclocking is not bad (also depends on your chip that you will get): http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/06/03/asus_z87a_lga_1150_motherboard_review/7
