More than high performance you should want reliability in your motherboard and then features.
The performance comes more from CPU / MEM / GPU.

Remember, the motherboard is the base of everything, don't go too cheap. Stick with either ASUS or ASrock, they are my favorite brands that offer solid boards and in the case of Asrock at good pricing.
