I'm looking for a Z270 mobo for the 7600k. I am kinda new to this and don't really know what to look for around motherboards. Overclocking and M.2 slot are the main thing I'm looking for now. Don't really care about the budget, I'm just searching for the best value currently.

I have narrowed my searching in between these 5 mobos. Can you tell me which one should I stick to please?

 

Thanks is advance! :)

I'm a bit of an MSI fanboy myself, but I don't think you could go wrong with any of these.  Everyone has their own preferences based on their experiences, but at the end of the day, all the top brands will perform relatively the same.  Just make sure you're getting the features you want (i.e. OC'ing, SLI, USB 3.1 type A or C, M.2, U.2 , UEFI layout, RGB lighting, etc.) at a price you're comfortable with.   There are plenty of reviews for products like these on youtube, or other tech related sites.  

 

Personally, I like the MSI Pro Carbon.  Will overclock well, M.2 and U.2 support, pretty good onboard audio (so i've read),  Plenty of USB 3.1 ports (with 1 one type-c gen2 i think) and i've always liked MSI UEFI layout and the RGB is a nice touch.

What is your definition of "value"? the Z270-A has a good set of features and isn't really missing anything important. It would have my vote, and Asus has great motherboards with great UEFI's on them. You could certainly get one of those MSI boards as well if you want to save some money as there's nothing really wrong with them either. MSI also makes fine products.
