The way I look at it is if AMD is good enough for the fastest supercomputer in the US, it's good enough for me. :)

I tend to prefer Gigabyte for mobos.

CASE: Cooler Master HAF X full tower
MOBO: Gigabyte 970A-D3
CPU: AMD FX 6300
COOLER: Asetek 570LX 240MM
MEM: 2x4gig Kingston Hyper X 1600MHz
HDD: WD Cavair Black 500gig
GPU: EGA Nivida GTX 650 2gig
Monitor:Dual Acer 21.5 1920x1080
PSU: Corsair CX500 V2

Performance to price ratio goes to intel. :withstupid:

Vouch for gigabyte. I've had 3 of their boards, one was DoA and was RMAed very quickly and easily.

you are talking about max performance - unless you work for NASA you probably dont need

checking email and watching youtube, AMD fusion is the best value

I would go with the Gigabyte motherboard,... seems MSI went out with the Big Bang. :yucky: And AMD has always had superior memory bandwidth somehow over Intel.

Talking about the choice between UD3, UD5, UD7- I should say go ahead and buy either UD5 or UD7. UD3 shouldn't be first choice.
