i think the g because it has the vdd control on it. i think you can change it from 1.6 to 1.8. so that is always good.
 
I'm running both an RDA and a GA+ and will be adding 2 RGA+ next week...Here's the scoop

THe 8RGA+ has the vdd adjustable in bios from 1.6 to 2.0 in .2 increments and is able to hit 200fsb in its sleep... I have however seen MANY 8rda users hit 200 WITHOUT mods though its hit or miss without doing a mod...
I have NOT been able to get my RGA+ over 202 but am trying tonight to remidy this by removing the 133/166 jumper which I read in another thread...
THe 8RGA+ also adds the GeForce4MX onboard video which is nice till you add some other SPANKIN card.. It works fine for everyday apps and basic games.... If you want the 8RGA+ they are $99 shipped at newegg till they are gone..... THe $15 difference in price to me is WORTH getting the 8RGA+ at least until the 8RDA3+ comes out---but we don't have pricing yet!! could be 130's when they first come out in JUNE!!!
 
Had both the 8RDA+ and 8RGA+ and would clearly take the 8RGA+ first.

That said the 8RGA+ wouldn't do much more that 209 so I finally jumped ship to get an Abit NF7-S rev2 and am at 215 which could go higher but I'm memory limited. You could draw a good Epox but I had 2 working boards over the last couple years out of 6 boards sent to me, their QA sucks.
