Hello

I am building a new pc with the FX 8350.

Which one of these boards would be good to use for it? I will do gaming, 3D design, rendering, graphic design and video editing. Yes I will probably oc the cpu.

Low end choices:
ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0

High end choices:
MSI 990FXA-GD80 V2
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5
ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0

Is there any need to go with the higher ends?
