I've only ever used Asus boards? And Asus are high quality too, plus their EFI Bios makes me sweaty under the collar

Asrock are owned by ASUS.

you get more features for less money.

The UEFI I believe is the same style.

You have Ivy Bridge and PCI3.0 with the Gen3 boards.

After I had a faulty MSi P67 board followed by a faulty Asus P67 board I took a gamble and bought the Asrock P67 Professional Motherboard.

I was worried at first as i'd never had an Asrock board. However best upgrade decision I made, its the best motherboard i've had so far and i've had a few from Gigabyte, Asus and MSi over various chipsets. My i7-2600k is on auto 4.8Ghz overclock and never goes over 1.38vcore, I can also hit 5Ghz on 1.44v but i'm playing iot safe at 4.8Ghz. I know your after the Z68 version but i'd doubt the quality will be any less than my P67 version.

They are quality mobo's you wont regret it.
