P5Q Pro. Intel chipsets are more stable and OC better as well.

Nvidia chipsets suck. P45 is the best for overclocking. Motherboard is not two words.

+1 ASUS P5Q Pro

The current generation nVidia chipsets are not very good.
Intel's P45 chipset is top notch.

Intel all the way, however, if you want/need SLI on a S775 board, you can only use NVidia ...
