Post links of both.

At the moment, from memory, the EVGA will be better...

yeah im pretty possitive about the evga only downfall is the ddr2 u think that will do me for games coming out like crysis and fallout 3?

It depends really if you want to run an ATI or nVidia multi-card setup, as the Intel only supports multiple ATI cards, and the eVGA only supports multiple nVidia cards.

If you want to dish out more money there are DDR3 boards.

could i play newer games like crysis on ddr2? like 2x 4gbs??

DDR2 is still great for gaming, going to DDR3 will make very little to no difference.
