See if you need the features and if it fits your colour theme.

 

Motherboards dont have anything to do with how good the PC will perform

You don't need a ridiculously high end board. A cheap Z170 motherboard will be just as "Fast" as a high end Z170 motherboard.

The cheaper board has less feature and for an extreme overclock it will probably not overclock as high.

 

I am not saying get the cheapest z170 motherboard, get the one that has the features you want/or need (including aesthetics).

 

Ultra-durable is just a Gigabyte brand, it doesn't mean much. MSI has "Military Grade" which means just as little.
