I'm assembling my first build. I'm getting the i5-3570k, so I wanted to get a Z77 board but I can't decide between these two.
ASRock Z77 Extreme6

ASUS P8Z77-V

I don't care about the built in wifi with the ASUS board because I have a usb adapter, but it does have the USB BIOS Flashback option.
Price is a big factor in my decision, and since the ASRock is cheaper, I'm leaning toward that one. Will the extra money for the ASUS board be worth it?
This article was published Monday and compares the ASRock with the ASUS P8Z77-V PRO. Obviously the pro is a different model, but the author still chose the ASRock over the ASUS board.

If it were your build, what would you do?
