I am getting the Intel i5-4690K Haswell processor (aka Devil's Canyon) and was curious as to which motherboard I should get with it. I do not plan on overclocking right now, but may in the future and would like to have an SLI capable board (again for future use). The color scheme is red, so a red board would work, but it doesn't have to be. Price isn't really an issue, I'm just stingy and would like something cheap, but at the same time great. $200 would be the max ammount I would be willing to spend. Any ideas?
