Well it would really help if you specified your needs, such as crossfire/sli support, required number of sata/usb, going to be overclocking and by how much etc etc.
The UD2 is micro-atx formfactor so if your case supports that size then it looks excellent value for money. It lacks some features of the more costly motherboards - but we dont know if those features are important to you...

I'm not going to do cross and sli...The important to me is the USB ports, and all this cases has 14...And the antec nine hundred supports micro-atx...So i think is gonna be the UD2...
What you think??
The memorys will be the Gskill Ripjaws 12800 4gb cl9...
This memoris is compatible with the board??

If you're after P55 on the cheap look at Asrock.

the memorys is 1,5V and 1,6V...Te mobo supporst only max 1,5V...
DDR3 ram is rated at a standard 1.5 volts.
In order to run DDR3 memory at faster speeds, most companies require you to increase the voltage to the maximum allowable 'standard'. That is, 1.65 volts.
The P55 motherboards all support increasing the voltage to 1.65 volts, although the Gigabyte BIOS will show 1.64 - which is fine.
One point of note: to run that G.Skill memory at rated speed [1600MHz, at 7-7-7-24 (2T) and 1.65V] you will need to enable the XMP profile (under BIOS Memory menu), or enter the timings manually.
Also, if running a Core i5, this will overclock the CPU base clock (frequency) from 133 to 160MHz, due to the limited x10 memory multiplier integrated onto the processor.
