Comment:
I choosen the UD3 because some features on the UD5 aren't useful for me, and i live well w/ 16gb, by the time i'll need 8 ram slots i'll have a IB-E.For an 'entry level' board it's packed with many features and especially can do 2-3-4 ways SLI/CFX and have 6xSATA 3+ 4xSATA 2.Of course since it's the entry level it o/c less than more costly cards but i reached 4.5Ghz w/ 1.364V stable 24/7 and it's already a beast at this clock (w/ a 3930K). The card is very stable, and the F4 bios update  was a breeze.Of course if by the time you want 32Gb on it you'll need to pay $500, it all depends of the amount of RAM you already use before you switch into X79.A great value card !
