Realistically, that's way too many boards for anyone here to be comparing to one another.

 

If you specify a price range, it will be much easier to narrow it down.

I'm going to let my bias flow throw me like diarrhea after Mexican food by excluding all MSi, Gigabyte and Asrock motherboards and say the Asus Z97-PRO.

 

Or if you live in an area where it's available the Asus Z97-Pro Gamer.

I don't have a budget, but I don't want overkill.

MSI MPOWER and ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO are the top boards in that list...they have the better build quality...lots of power phases, 8 layer PCB's...they are top end motherboards...my vote goes to the MSI.

 

in the list IMHO the best in terms of ''all things considered including look, features, price and build quality, my vote goes to the MSI Z97 Gaming 5.
