Get the ASUS Z170-A.  It is the best bang for your buck motherboard out right now.

You can see a feature comparison here.

 

Basically what you should pay the closest attention to is how many PCIe, SATA, and USB ports they have, because those are the most consequential differences. As long as the board you pick has enough ports for what you intend to do, it should be fine.

 

I don't know what build you're planning, but pay attention to the fact that the Z170-P and Z170-K do not support SLI. If you intend to use SLI now or ever, you'll need the Z170-A, Pro Gaming/Aura, or something else.
