all Z97 boards overclock more or less the same. buy the cheapest you can find that has the features you want...simple

This^^. Also watch what MSI board you get. No way to recover from bad bios flash on some of them. I experienced that first hand on my Gaming 5.......
You can't be serious.  Hyperthreading is a market joke?

I dont know how much it is in dollars but a maximus vii ranger is £125 and i love it. Great features on it and great overclocking. I wouldnt get any other manufacturers Z97 boards anymore.
