Dear Sirs,

I am curently building a new rig for some ocasional gaming . So far, i do have the following components :
CPU : FX6300
GPU : MSI 7850 OC 1GB
PSU : SUPERFLOWER KING GOLD 550 PLATINUM


Now i must buy a motherboard fot it and my main option would be Gigabyte GA970A-UD3P .Also i notice that there is a UD3 version , any difference ? Is the UD3P going to allow OC like UD3 ?
Secound issue , ram mems : i found a nice deal in my city , from Kingston - 1600 MHZ Aniversary edition . I have to choose between it and some any other 1866 Mhz modules . The 1600 ones i found at 75 $ but the 1866 ones, teh cheapast at 115$ . What do you think ? I don't think is worth the $ difference especialy that i can probably OC to 1866 ?

The UD3P has the same power phase design so should OC similarly. Go for the cheaper ram speed difference will not be noticeable even if it does not go past 1600.

I had to make some changes, so the system would be the one from this wish list : http://www.dc-shop.ro/wish/&wid=7225
I wish to go for some CPU OC. Would I have any issues ? As I heard the rams may be a little to big for this CPU coole r to fit ?

The two ram slots you use for Dual channel are # 1 and 3 that is the second from the CPU and the last. May be an issue but I do not see your Cooler.

Looks good and I think the cooler only overhangs the closest slot like on my Asus board so no issue with that.
