Welcome to the fourms!

110% for the ASUS P5Q-E.
MSI is known for having very substandard motherboards that are prone to having issues/failures.
ASUS is a top tear manufacturer who produces high quality parts.
As both motherboards have the same feature sets, the ASUS board costing less and being of much higher quality makes it the much better choice.
