Needing a new motherboard, please offer advice and opinions :)))

[Lukeus]

So my motherboard has died and I need a new one to replace it, do I opt for the same Board as I know it's compatible with everything I have, or should I opt for another, if their is any benefits to the change?

my current one is a MSI z97 PC mate, yet I was also looking at the similar models, if this board good enough or should I perhaps get another model, thanks in advance guys

My hardware is:
CPU Intel i5 4690k
Gigabyte GeForce 1070
Xfx 650w XTR
2x4 gb low vengeance corsair ram
Zalman z11 plus H mid tower case
Cool master hype CPU cooler

Any Z97 board will be ok, the Z97 PC Mate is not bad. It's compatible with all of the parts you've listed anyway.

If you're looking at US prices, you can also try the Z97X-SLI for 80 dollars + 20 MIR.

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97X-SLI ATX LGA1150 Motherboard ($80.91 @ Newegg)
Total: $80.91

budget? also it is better to get a mobo with M2 pcie 3.0 slot and not old M2

also some mobos have better onboard sound

tell me your budget and where you buy from which country?

around 100 pounds is the max i am looking to spare on a new mobo, i typically buy from amazon but any retailer willing to deliver to the UK is fine with me.

I have an Asus Maximums VIII Hero Alpha and I love it. So, I would recommend an Asus and for your budget, you may like this one, hopefully it is available in the UK for you.
