Is there a difference in terms of build quality?
Based on Gigabyte's specs, the only difference seems to be that the Gaming 3 has a different LAN chip and some extra audio features. However, on the product page the UD3 is listed as having solid caps and a special PBC design, which is not on the Gaming 3's feature list.
There's also this:

... which says that there is a difference in power layout (8 phase for G3, 12 phase for UD3, I don't actually know what that means).
There seem to be barely any reviews for these boards and the Newegg ratings for the UD3 are... not encouraging. Is there a significant difference between them?
