    Everybody has a favorite. What to avoid is the names you never hear about.
    But for a direct answer, here is a list on another site.
    Best Motherboards: May 2015
    (From Tom's Hardware)
    Notice he starts with :
    Intel Z97 Express Motherboards .
    That would be a good choice.
    But what do you really mean when you say 'best'?
    One poster on that site said:

    Basically, the difference in boards all comes down to ability. The more expensive boards have better everything. More USB headers, data ports, voltage regulations, chipsets, overclocking ability, better audio, bios, memory controllers.... Everything is better component wise, bigger, stronger, faster.
    Often low price means low quality.  :)
