Giskard's CUO edits Bruma, Leyawiin, Bravil and Chorral. Giskards Kvatch aftermath and Kvatch rising (the Kvatch mod I recommend) edits the city of Kvatch. Giskard's Origin of the Mages Guild edits The arcane university and Giskard's The Elder Council edits the Imperial City temple district. What I did however, was choose to use all of Giskard's CUO cities and Better Cities Cheydinhal and Anvil seeing as Giskard has not touched those two cities. I also chose to use Kvatch Rising as that mod simply adds so much unique things.
As far as the Imperial City is concerned, Giskard only edited one district so there weren't many compatibility issues, but if there is an option in the better cities installer to leave the temple district untouched, you should opt for that choice so you can use Giskard's The Elder Council without problems. I also chose to use Better Cities Arcane University, since Giskard's Origin of the Mages Guild has very little compatibility issues with Better Cities Arcane University. The only real issue I found between those two mods is the large stone wall separating the entrance of the university with the inner area. Giskard's mod removes the wall in a later quest, while better cities leaves the wall standing.
It's your choice which cities mod you want to use, but my explanation allows you to use the best of both city mods while still maintaining compatibility between them. The main difference between both cities mods is that Giskard's CUO cities are strictly lore friendly, which is a good thing if you love the lore of Oblivion. Better cities is just what it says; better cities, and aims to make cities larger and more grandiose.
