1156 motherboard choice

[stoneyfordni]

im looking to build an i7 1156 system soon and cant decide between the maximus 3 board or the EVGA *** board , both boards have the features i need and the colour scheme im after so it just comes down to overclocking really , CPU will be an 860 with probably a TRUE 120 on it when a bracket comes out

which one seems to be the better contender

many thanks
