Hi all, I got some help earlier from this subreddit and have streamlined my selections. All I need help picking now is a motherboard. I've selected Asrock as I've had good experiences with their lower end before. However, I'd like to know if anyone has experience with any of the following motherboards:
Asrock Z97 Extreme3
Asrock Z87 Extreme3
Asrock Z87 Extreme4
Asus Z87-A
The reason I ask is that I picked up the Asus Z87-A on the fly at Microcenter today for a good price, but the reviews on Newegg are making me think it may have been a poor purchase and should return it.
Here's the rest of my selections:

Any recommendations on better GPUs at that price point or a better choice of that model would be welcome as well.
Appreciate the help!
