This is my build so far, but I am considering changing the motherboard to the Asus Z97-A. I don't plan to do much over clocking (I will buy an aftermarket cooler when I do over clock). What do you think I should do? I believe the ASRock has a few more features, but the Asus BIOS looks nicer. Price is basically the same.
