Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI or Asus Z170-A

So I decided to get 6600k as my processor, planning to overclock at ~4.5GHz if chip allows it, so what would be better motherboard of this 2? 

In my country their price is completely same comparing their features gigabyte one is better since it has more USB ports and more SATA-E but quality and durability wise which one is better? 

I plan this build to last me 3-4 years so would like good quality motherboard.
