It was suggested to me that I should get one of the Core i7 Socket 1366pin MB for my next build. I was going to use Gigabyte EP45-UD3P and Q9650 otherwise.
I don't need anything fancy. The usual computer works and occasional video encoding and occ HTPC. No gaming.
It basically come down to one of these two board.

Will be using Sapphire HD4670 ULTIMATE 512M video card. I want a fanless video card.
Which of the above two MB would you prefer ?
If possible also tell me why you prefer that particular one.
Which is the better / more reliable MB?
Thanks.
