I was going to go with the Asus Maximus VII Hero, but a friend said it was overpriced. Since I am on a budget I would prefer to spend less money. I wanted to know which motherboard from this list will go best with this build. I know it says the EVGA GeForce GTX 760, but I am going to get the 770. Although I am on a budget I don't want to cheap out. Thanks in advance.

Project Virtus:

CPU: i7-4790K CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo Mobo: Gigabyte ga-z97x-gaming 5 Memory:  G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB HDD: WD Black 1TB SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB GPU: Msi GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4 Case: Corsair Spec-02 PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 850G2

Definitely Z97 G45 Gaming. Looks just as good as the Maximus IMO, also red and black, and unlike ROG boards it's not a waste of money for what you get. http://pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-z97g45gaming
