So my Gigabyte x79-ud3 died yesterday(moment of silence please). Basically I need to pick up a new one and the x79-up4 looks great but it cost the same as the ud3? What gives? Also, is there a specific motherboard you guys would recommend for an lga2011 build? I prefer not to spend more then $300. Thankyou

Canadian currency. To be honest I rather not go with a sabertooth. I have heard both good and bad things and the bad makes me question it. I also am not a fan of the brown on this model. Thanks though!

I am a big fan of ROG products but I don't see a micro-atx going with my 750D. Also the 32gb memory cap wont do. Thanks though, keep the suggestions coming!

your suggestions are fantastic, the only problem is I want a motherboard that will perform and look good. The blue on that board wont do with my mostly black and red build. Could you give me your thoughts on the gigabyte x79-up4? Thankyou for all of your effort!
