3770k OC motherboard.

Hi everyone, I've recently acquired a new 3770k for less than Microcenter 3570k price. Now I realize that Microcenter wasn't that bad because they had $40 off the motherboard. I am trying to find a motherboard for best OC'ing possible with the smallest budget possible, I don't want to spend more than $150, the less the better.

Regardless of this, someone has offered me an ASrock Extreme4 for $100 no taxes. I want to get it, but I keep reading about some voltage reading bug ASrock hand, yet it's one of the most popular and well rated boards I see.

So is it worth it to get the ASrock at that price or are there better options? Maybe if I wait longer they will go on sale? The main thing I esnt the motherboard to do is OC extremely well and allow dual PCI-E3 at 8x 8x.
 
The Asrock is good for that price but really any Z77 board will overclock and the question is more what features do you want like multi GPU support and so on.

Used to own the Z77 E4, it was absolutely stellar. No issues with voltage, the only reason I upgraded was to go quadfire/SAS.
