I'm going to be build a system very soon and have been debating over a motherboard. Between these two boards which one would you choose. The pricing is very similar.

GIGABYTE GA-EP35-DS3P LGA 775
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813128083

Or

ABIT IP35 Pro LGA 775
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] IP35%2bpro

I plan on using an Q6600 processor and 4 gigs of ram in 2 sticks.
If you have any memory suggestions, brand and type it will be appreciated.

Thanks for your help.

I would go with Gigabyte. I recently built 2 systems and went with Giagabyte in both (GA-P35-DS4 & GA-M68SM-S2). Last year I used an ASUS P5B-E and I like the Gigabyte board better.

I use Corsair XMS2 TWIN2X2048-6400C4 ram
