ASUS are great board makers. Liquid cooled? Im sure there are custom blocks for several ASUS mATX boards.

Asus and Gigabyte are the big two for motherboards, with ASrock and MSI right behind. You cant really go wrong with any of these brands.

It's the matter of quality and reliability. Some of brands may publish some great features about their cheap boards but I've always found them tricky as they make up the price by using really cheap and low quality parts.
So if you choose quality over price, go for a asus or gigabyte.
Actually if you are using a mobo for 4 years, it's better to buy a good mobo for 4 years than buying some cheap mobos during 4 years.
