Thank you very much for your time, really appreciate it!

I'd go with the Asus X99-A (or look at the Rock's Fatal1ty X99X Killer), people haven't seemed to thrilled with GBs entry level UD3 or UD4 mobos

Go with the Asus board. I have the UD4, and it has been a pain recently. The bios has kept crashing for a while now. Gigabyte just released a minor fix to the board. Go with the Asus.

Thank you guys, you helped a lot...

Do you believe that i should go with the ASRock Fatal1ty x99x ?? It costs 25 euro more than the Asus x99-A...
Does it worth the extra money or is there a significant difference between them??

No, if you want the best reliabilitiy, the asus board is to go
