Gigabyte or MSI?

[Forevermore1337]

I was going to purchase this Gigabyte board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128352

However, i came across this MSI motherboard for a bit less with seemingly no reductions from the Gigabyte. Is the MSI as good a board as the Gigabyte?

Here's the MSI board: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130191

Msi makes good mobos but so does Gigabyte to its realy up to you what you choose.

I dont care for MSI boards. Like there video cards but not there boards. I know someone will come along and say the one I have is great, I have had a few good ones too. But overall there quality control is kinda out there. Got alot with flaky bios/non working USB/LAN/sound ports blah blah blah. I would stick with Asus/Gigabyte and DFI for a AMD board.
