Well I guess it really depends on what your gonna use it for, and who ends up with them.
I imagine the UD4H board has better/more power management, for overclocking. Plus it's got more USB ports.
I would think that onboard GPU's would be good to have also, for the customers that don't game.
But I really think it comes down to who's actually gonna be using the board. | |

hmm. But most of them are going to end up with dedicated GPUs in the end anyways. | |

Well if that's the case and you don't think the lack of USB's or RAID or OC ability is a factor, then save yourself some money.
Again, it's just hard to say because I don't know who is ending up with the machine.  | |

Yeah. I tried asking for that board. But they told me there was no stock. I know that the Gigabyte 770 boards are supposed to be very very good tough, having many similar features to its 790 siblings. | |
