Is Asrock your only option? There are better quality boards out there than Asrock.

 

But to be clear, the Fatal1ty.

Asus makes a really nice Z77 matx board, it's blue and only $150 for the good version. Gigabyte makes a G1 board in matx, it's not exceptional though.

I've never read any bad reviews for it (guess I'm out of the loop), go for the G1 board then or take a chance on Asus'.

 

SEE? Asus is better than Asrock.

I would go for the g1 board if they were still selling it and would def go for the Gene V if you could still get it

I don't see what is wrong with the ASrock boards... all I here is bad things about Asus and its customer service and RMA

Asus: Customer Service

 

Asrock: Build Quality overall \

 

 

What do you want better for your board?

MSI Z77MA-G45 I have it with the 3570k. Not a great overclocker since it has locked Voltages. I have a decent overclock at 4.4GHz for my CPU. Supports SLI and is cheaper than every motherboard suggested. Little bit of an MSI Fanboy right here so. I own 3 MSI Mobo's and can vouch for them (MSI Z77MA-G45, MSI FM2-A75IA-E53, and MSI FM2-A85XA-G65) and also a MSI GTX 760 2GB TF/OC Edition if that matters at all :P

 

Edit: My friend has the MSI Z87-G55 and the MSI Z87-G43 also. (Bought the G43 told him to get the G55 first but didn't listen to me, wasted $100)

Project Restomod (In progress)

I'd recommend the Asus MAXIMUS V GENE Z77. Asus is always my go-to choice for motherboards and the ROG series are amazing for overclocking and have plenty of features. I'm actually considering one for downsizing my build into a Fractal Design Define Mini.
