Spec'ers

I am upgrading my FX AMD rig to an Intel at some point in the next 1-2months.

I want a i7 4790K and a mobo, budget is flexible so around £350-£450, but I need a motherboard that is capable of holding an OC, probably won't be trying to push it past 4.5Ghz tbh but want something that will cope with it and gives me lots of features, don't need wifi but will be looking at SLI at some point.

Colour wise, I like Black & Blue schemes but that can always be changed.

ATX please and Z79!

I like ASUS mobo's as that's what I've always had, but am willing to look at others providing they meet my requirements.

Never had an Intel rig before so this is kind of new to me.

Spec me a few different i7 4790k's with motherboards. Will be used alongside 8GB 1600Mhz Corsair Ram.

PSU is an EVGA G2 750W and OS is Windows 8.1
 
I like the Giga stuff, the Z87 board was very good by all accounts, what is the difference between the SOC and SOC force?
