hello

I still can't decide which one to get (both at same price). Can someone tell me which one is a better choice and why?

That's depending on you intensions
The MSI board has 3 graphic card slots, so you can run 3 graphic cards but i don't recomme tu run 3 cards because its a 750I chipset and not a 780I
So i would choose asus P5N-D because i have also this board with 8800GTS and Q6600 , perfect combination :)

For you i would advice P5N-D, Q9300 , 9800GTX (plus if possible) and 4 GB of OCZ Reaper HPC and don't forget to pick up a good cpu air cooler wich is not to big like CNPS9700 or Artic Freezer Pro 7 ,...
Case: Antec 900 or antec sonata plus 550

You can find a video of my configuration on youtube
