New build - rough overview, advice welcome

Haha sigh, I really thought that this time building a PC I'd get something solid and just.... buy it and enjoy it. But I've fallen into the compare-is-this-good-enough-where-can-I-compromise trap again.

I'm a bit skeptical about the motherboard that I chose originally. After reading this it seems they're a bit sketchy. The mATX form factor also bothers me. Why get a solid case and a huge GPU if you're going to get a baby motherboard? There's always this. Even if I'm not planning on ever running multi-gpu (not sure if my PSU will even handle it), do you think it's worth investing in the slightly more expensive motherboard? I'm thinking in terms of overclocking. The 2500k seems easy enough to OC to very good speeds even on their stock air-cooler, so it's always a nice option. I'm also hoping this build will last me a fair amount longer than the last one, in which case overclocking becomes more viable to keep up and make it last even longer...

EDIT: WOOOAH. The LE seems really bad for overclocking.... so I guess it's back to searching :/
