Heya, I´d like to add an X58 Board to my collection and I want to choose something that can handle serious OC, preferably with Xeons too.
I currently have three options, all at the same price:
A) ASUS Rampage III Extreme
B) MSI Big Bang XPower
C) Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD9 (but this offer looks a bit funky, not sure If I´ll consider it)
Are there any special things to know about X58-boards in terms of CPU / RAM compatibility? I heard there was some kind of uncore-bug on an MSI board?
I have not been on intel during the days of X58 and I have absolutly no idea which boards did well and which were a pain.
