If I need to invest $300 now I'd rather go 1150. Like I said, if EVGA had given me a green light on step up to z87 classified I'd have waited, but I didn't feel like staying with the z77 FTW on a maybe...
The rma process with Asrock is proving problematic. The first replacement they sent me was DOA, the second works except the sound card has issues I discovered this weekend... Another two weeks of RMA process with them coming up...
I have ASUS video cards so the Maximus VI felt like the right way to go.
I'll probably end up using my i7-3770k on a mini-ITX build :) maybe z77 Stinger?
