Interfaces SONAR 8.5 PE Which of these 3

Recording setup question
Given a;
Dell STUDIO XPS 8100, W7X64 Home Premium, Intel I7-870, 2.93 GHz, 8 GB RAM-Running SONAR 8.5 Producer (Adding X1 once released) - which Interface would be my best choice of these three or are there any others that would be a better choice in this price range with similar features?,
 
(1) MOTU Ultralite MK3, (2) Roland OCTA-CAPTURE, or (3) MAudio Fast Track Ultra
 
I have read all the threads I can handle and appreciate the professional input given by so many in here, I am now running into info overload at the moment and need help deciding.
Thanks so much for the input and help
Mike

    Between those, I would go for the OCTA-Capture, you're supposed to be able to expand the I/O with another one or V-Studio products..

    I've heard good things about the M-Audio Fast Track Ultra 8R.

    Personally I'd like to get my hands on RME's Fireface UFX!

    The upside is that you can't make a bad decision between those three...
     
    If the lowest possible round-trip latency is important to you, the FastTrack Ultra delivers the lowest of those three (5.5ms at a 64-sample ASIO buffer size/44.1k)
