Dude you have to check out the msi gaming 5 its frecking amazing, really solid build and comes with many features. I have one myself paired with the i5 4690k and a gtx 970, i couldn't be happier. On top of that its was tom's hardware approved for 2014 here's the link: (http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/mainstream-gaming-z97-motherboard,3824-27.html)
It was one the best performers there and its not to expensive, newegg currently has them for $144. I got mine at tigerdirect but they price matched it with newegg. Awesome deal i recommend it!
