Help me find a MoBo?

[LambdaCat]

So i have just found out my MoBo doesn't support 2400mhz ram, so now i finally think its high time i get a new one anyway as my current is simply designed for office functions rather than gaming. 

i am having real trouble finding a decent model thus far.

I need:

a 1150 socket (preferably z97)

DDR3 Ram with up to 2400 mhz support up to 32gb

at least 2 pcie slots

a wealthy amount of USB 3 at the rear I/O, 

Ethernet, USB 2 all your basic shiz really

ATX Form factor

Plain colour scheme (grey scale or blue, no red or green etc. sounds stupid but its important to me.)

for under 150 Euros (£130ish)

 

any recommendations and experience is warmly welcome with imaginary mead, thanks.

The Asus Z97-A  is a great choice and costs around 150 euros.

they make pretty good boards and one of the biggest manufacuters (besided msi, asus, and gigabyte), though ive heard their customer service is nonexistent (worse than asus even.  ive never actually had any experience with them myself though

Yes they are, I'm using an ASRock z170m extreme4 in my system, great for overclocking also.
