boards that cost more have more features.

 

more importantly you pay for better power delivery to your cpu and overclocking features.

 

your cpu will be limited to 1.3V on that board, but that is fine if you are just going to use a evo 212.

 

I think you should consider a Z97 board.

I think its pretty well balanced.

 

I think you should be able to hit 4.2-4.4GHz overclock with the parts you have chosen :)
