Gigabyte motherboard help someone ?

I have posted 2 threads for motherboard help but no reply
Someone please help

I need a good gaming motherboard for my gtx 780
I5-4670k
2 4gb ram crossair vengeance 1600

Gigabyte ga-z87x-ud3h or ga-z87x-oc
As in my country
ga-z87x-ud3h costs - $ 250
And oc costs about. - $ 330
Is it worth for extra 80$ ??
I am new to over clocking
I guess I will do over clocking
And I heard sound is better on d3h ?

My brother got the Z87X-OC for christmas, he is very happy with it, its very easy to overclock in the BIOS. Since the UD3H is also a Z87 motherboard it is also capable of overclocking. I'm pretty sure they use the exact same or extremely similar BIOS, so in terms of ease then you wont see much benefit from the Z87X-OC. Since you're new to overclocking I'd say the UD3H is your best bet, as I cant see you stretching the potential on the OC. Use the extra $80 to buy an SSD for your system, or if possible jump up to a 4770k. You'll see your money go to much more use.

Hope this helps.

The OC board is not worth the extra money. UD3H will still allow overclocking and can do SLI.

Check on Google for Gigabyte Z87X OC vs Z87X-UD3H
as I don`t think I`m allowed to provide you with a direct link here.

In short, go for the Z87X-UD3H, it OC`s great and it`s a good mobo.
I still have to sit down and start overclocking my Gigabyte Z87MX-D3H with my i5 4670k.

Thanks for your replies
I will be using this motherboard for at least 4 years
So I need a good one
I tried googling it but almost all comparisons are of ud3h vs ud4h
I am thinking of
2 128gb ssd
And I wanted to know whether evga has international warranty ??
I was planning to order it from amazon us

huilun02 · Dec 30, 2013

You will get the warranty but to use it you will have to send the card all the way back to the US.

iiNrG :

I have heard there is no use i7 for gaming
I will mostly game ( battlefield 4)
I will also do lot of programming work
So do I need hyper threading ??

huilun02 · Dec 30, 2013

I believe they benefit from Hyperthreading but you won't suffer a terrible performance loss without it. The 4670K is still awesome for everything.

huilun02 :

Cause here it sells for like 700$
If I import I can get it for 600$
So the confusion
Whether to save 100$
Or just buy it here

huilun02 · Dec 30, 2013

Knowing EVGA makes very good graphics cards and seldom hear of dead/bad cards, you will probably not have to use the warranty ever.

Anyway Amazon has a good return policy if your card arrived dead. They will come to your house to collect it and not charge you anything.

huilun02 :

Guess then amazon it is
And if I want to add speakers
Do i need to purchase a sound card ??
And does this motherboard have built in wifi ??

huilun02 · Dec 30, 2013

You do not need a sound card. The motherboard has an integrated sound chip.

It does not have built in Wifi. To add Wifi functionality, get a wireless adapter.
