Advice for future system upgrade

I think i will wait for a cpu cooler and use the stock intel fan for now. I am still deciding on the motherboard afterall, but i think i might go for Gigabyte UD3h or UD5H, not sure yet...

If you want to save a few bucks get the UD3H. You aren't losing a lot from the UD5H, basically you lose 3-way Crossfire/SLI and a better audio chip.

The D3H is a good contender too, you really can't go wrong with any of those.

Well i guess it's too late now, i went with the UD5H afterall. Already made the order but yeah i thought it had more features that i liked. Hopefully the motherboard works fine and crossing my fingers to not have problems like the ones stated in newegg's one star reviews.

I liked the dual ethernet plugs among other things like the extra usbs.
