I ordered one of the cheaper boards (Biostar TP67B+) because it was on a deal and that I want to move to Z68 later on (because of QuickSync). Besides, I don't plan on using an SSD but even if I do, I'd move over the (B,C,D)DROM to SATAII port because that is hardly ever used so its failure rate should be very low.
