Ok, needs someones opinion on two m'boards. Which do you think is the better board out of the ones below? There's not much difference in price. But the second one is slightly more expensive, considering I'm on a tight budget and trying to save all the money I can for the other components.

MSI K9N Ultra-2F nForce 570 Ultra


OR.........
Gigabyte GA M57SLI-S4

have you got some links to make it easier for us. I would probably go for the Gigabyte but havent seen specs yet so will give you opinion when links arise.

So you going for Athlon X2 then?

I would go with the gigabyte as its a better make and has better specs e.g. two pci express slots if you decided to go for SLI ever.

Yeah, think I'll look around for an Athlon X2. The Intel's a bit too pricy I think.
