I tend to have a preference for asus, but will consider others. Moderate O.C. and paired with either R5 2600 or 2400G. Looking for other opinions. Thanks.
 
And if you want the absolute best: ROG Crosshair VII Hero. It clearly has the most robust VRM setup for overclocking and a full set of features to go with it (trouble code readouts, on-board power switch, switch selectable redundant BIOS, etc., etc.)

To be sure, it's really only needed if you'll be attempting extreme over-clocks with sub-ambient cooling setups. But that's also true of most of the other premium boards with extreme VRM setups, except absent many of those other features that makes it make sense.
