MSI Z87 G43 or Asus Z87-A?

[Yachint]

Hey I'm building a new PC but I'm confused between these two motherboards...

Asus z87-A pros- 5k rated caps, More USB 3.0 ports, more power phases i guess(plz correct me if I'm wrong),AI suite 3.
Cons-much costlier-does not allow me to fit other stuff in my build
MSI Z87 G43 pros-Much cheaper-allows me to add more stuff in my build
Cons-don't know about the caps rating..., lesser USB 3.0, lesser power phases, I don't have anything against the MSI software, just that I find asus's better.

What I want with a mobo:-
1.good stability and reliability.
2.can Overclock a decent i5 4670k to 4.2ghz easily with a hyper 212 evo cooler.
3.would last me at least 3 years without any issues.

NOTE:I am NOT planning on SLI or Crossfire.

If I take the asus one-I'll have to take the corsair gs 600 which is 80 plus BRONZE
If I take the MSI one-I can easily take the Seasonic G550 which is a 80 plus GOLD PSU+some extra led Fans for lighting the cabinet

Planned build-i5 4670k+hyper 212 evo, 8gb ram, 1 Tb HDD, PSU will change with the mobo I take, XFX HD 7870

Thanks in advance

4.2 on that CPU is no sweat. MB wont have any effect on you getting there.

Honestly I would cheap out on the MB and get cheap reliable PSU. WIth the money ssaved add a SDD. Or spend the money saved on a 7950 over the 7870.
