Hi, i want to build a new rig. I have been using Mac for a long time now but i need my PC and build something!

I'm between the Maximus VI Hero, VI Formula love the board but for $300 i don't know it has the chipset watercooling, the cover and wifi/bluetooth... But is almost $100 of difference. And the last board is the MSI Mpower without the Max.

So which one?
 
I don't think the formula has chipset water cooling, only VRM, and it uses an aluminum block that will need to be replaced with a copper on anyways if you were really -planning to watercool it. Don't but the formula for the cooling only for the extra features.
 
I have the MPower Z87 board and its a great board for the money. The features are nice, while I don't use all the features available its nice to have.. I have it paired with my 4770K.

I initially had issues with the BIOS, but a quick update solved my problems.
 
Nah i will forget about the Formula to high price for me... I don't pay that much on a board anymore my last board for that price it was the formula 2.

Have you OC in the Mpower Z87?
