This is the MB I've kinda narrowed down my search to as far as the one I want to use with the 8700k when I get it. The reason I've focused on this model is I trust ASUS MBs and have had good experience with them over the years, and this is their lowest end Z370 variant that has the new ALC1220 audio.
That said, I had to laugh when the reviewer raved about it's 5GHz OC profile yielding satisfactory results, without even mentioning if he tested it at all for stability. It has some of the commenters assuming they can do a quick wham bam 5GHz OC with no issues.
