hey guys, wich Z97 you think is the best bitween those, Msi z97 g43 gaming, msi z97 gaming 9, asus sibertooth z97 or asus Maximus VII ranger.

i'm kind with the Maximus VII ranger what do think, and if there is better one besides those what is it. i'm going to buy a one in 2 days please help me choosing :D

Personally I prefer Asus Motherboards just because I haven't had one die on me, but that is a personal choice. I have had cheap MSI motherboards die so I tend to have a bit of a bad taste in my mouth from that experience. Honestly choose the best board for you find one with the features you need and tbh the cheapest board with all your features you need, with z87 and z97 having the mosfits on the CPU it doesnt really improve overclocking to have a higher end board and everything now a days is half decently reliable even the really cheap stuff. But to restate choose the board with the features that suit your build, motherboards do not have any performance impact so a more expensive board will not be faster then a cheap board. But thats just my two cents.

Within reason the overclocking is approximately the same  :P

Asus because: reasons.

Ketchup is better than mustard.

GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Dubs are better than subs
