I have this mobo in one of my rigs. I also have a UD7 in another rig. Both run fantastic. Options are fantastic. But This MOBO is MUCH cheaper and does everything you need it to.
Also make sure the riser you order comes with a 3 foot USB cable. You will want it later on. The short little 1 foot ones really limit what you can do with them.
EDIT. Also make sure the cables are USB 3.0. Why? Because USB 2.0 are cheaper cables.
