Benefits of upgrading?

Just wondering out of curiosity what benefits would I get from upgrading to a newer/better motherboard from my current one?

Currently have an Asrock Z77 Extreme4: Link removed, competitor

(Along with an i5 3570k)

A few % boost in games, Encoding, Newer features such as NVME, M.2, U.2, Slightly lower power draw, Temps and that's pretty much it.

Nope it's a bit of a long story to do with die and predator and a mix of them both
