I made a similar post about this subject not to long ago but I thought I would revisit it since some prices are changed. The UD4H is 114.99 at Microcenter right now if you buy it with a new processor. Btw I am. I plan on getting my new rig in early september and im wondering if spending the extra $90+ dollars makes sense. Does the UD4H have the same quality and overclock ability as the Hero?
