Hi, I was looking to buy the motherboard and I needed it because it supports a amd fx 9590,but the only board that supports it is the Ga-990fxa-ud5 rev 3.0, but all I can find online is 1.0. Am I being dumb because when I was about to order the board I noticed it said nothing about it being rev 3.0 or rev 1.0.Can some one point in the right direction with this please.

Unless you are after a specific feature that the UD5 just pick one of the others.
