Any better motherboard suggestions?

[Dark Side]

I ordered a Gigabyte GA-Z270X (Gaming K7).
Any suggestions for a better one? Let me know if this can be improved.
For compatibility purposes, these are all the other components I ordered. I have a fairly high budget.

of course I'd trust the Asus ROG more.
anyway, I understand you like the RGB. But you trying to build a high end (high power -> high heat output) system withing S340 which has anemic airflow. The AiO can only be mounted in front -not helping with thermals at all.
The Crapen X62 is a shinny joke - good looking mediocre cooler. and on top of that you go with very small SSD. like do you really care how fast windows boots ? honestly, i launch games much more than reboot the computer. and for games (and levels/maps/scenes) to load faster, they need to be on SSD.
A decent asus mobo for 100$ less (like Z270-A) will do the same overclocking. that money can go to 500GB-1TB SSD to hold your games.
As for the cooler, if you want liquid AiO - Swiftech H220 X2 or H240. Otherwise just stick to good air coolers.
As for the case, something like Fractal Design Define S or Define C have much better airflow and same clean look and even better to build within.

Interesting. I'll take a look at reviews on all these components and see if I like it. I'll most likely end up switching anyway.
Thanks for the advice

You are welcome.
P.S.
Forgot to mention the advantage of Swiftech's AiO - it's basically pre assembled custom loop (enthusiast grade components). it is very easy expandable/customizeable. So if you are bored, you can add another rad + GPU block and have quiet and cool (both temps and look) system - will take you a hour or two at most 😉 later if you feel adventurous, switch to hard line tubing. Did I mentioned colored and UV reactive liquids ? 😉

I'm good with just standard AIO. I don't want to spend too much time on it, just want to game without worrying about performance. Currently cancelling my orders and working on a new PC part list.
