Hi,
I'm trying to pick a good, stable mbd for Core2 Duo solution. I don't intend to set up RAID or crossfire, sli, and don't need fire wire. Am I making a mistake if I go with the cheaper UD3L ?
Gigabyte link explaining differences
Link from newegg to:
ep-45 UD3L
ep-45 UD3R
ep-45 UD3LR
Concerns about UD3L
- UD3R seems to have silent pipe thermal solution, where as others have heat sink. Is that worth paying $15 extra ?
- I'll be getting a graphics card that's about 9.5" long. Anyone know if that will cause a problem with UD3L layout ?
- UD3L doesn't have eSATAII - is that for external sata devices ?
Thank you
SM
