    Make sure you get a C3 CPU if possible.

    I personally would opt for the gigabyte for it's extreme cold abilities.

    MSI is a tad touchy, if it gets mad it will take itself out and the cpu.

    The ud4p was a little quirky with NB clocking last time I tested it. This was a while ago. A user sent it to me for a review. Might be fixxed now.

    It does best with d9 GTR/GTS in the not breaking the bank category.

    Elipda hypers work decent but not quite as good as they do on asus.

    To be fair my gtr/gts clocks higher on giga.
