I have built a system online and I wonder if the ga-990xa-ud3 will be much better than the ga-970a-ud3p... in my country they have 10 euros difference but does the ga-990xa-ud3 perform better or isn't the extra 10 euros worth it?

system:

case: Bitfenix Comrade
cpu: fx 6300
gpu: r9 270 OC
hdd: WD 1TB
psu: corsair power supply VS 650W
ram: G.skill ripjaws 8GB CL7 1600

I gonna overclock the cpu but not now, maybe in 3-4 months when I buy a new cpu cooler...

Personally, I'd recommend getting the cheaper board as it looks decent and will work out of the box.

Yeah I don't want to buy it and then upgrade things, I thought maybe the 990 chipset mobo would be better for overcloking, but maybe only minor changes in overcloking

Yeah buddy, cause I think that maybe 2 gpu's cause problems to the system (overheating, not nice airflow etc.) and why should you not sell your old gpu and then buy a new-better one, because not all games can use CF so the second gpu sometimes won't help....
