guys which is better an MSI 785GTM- E45 or ECS GF8200-A

would like to ask those who have this boards for these boards are just right for my budget

Note: Still have my 8600 Gts so is it worth hybrid SLi or just transfer to Ati?

MSI -

Good points :
Hybrid Crossfire

Core unlocking (as said in the MSI site)

easy oc switch

Bad points:

only 2 slot for memory

ECS-

Good Points:
Hybrid SLi

4 Slot memory

Cheaper

Bad points:

Can only support up to 95w processor

which should i Pick sound like a tie??

Used for Mild gaming playing like COd6 not on so high resolutions Bioshock 2 ( excited for next year)
and some school stuffs

Pairing it with an Athlon II x4 620 and if possible and lucky a Deneb core.....

but if propus core then still ok.

pls. any comments for these board except for DOA.....




 
Solution
if you wan to stick to your 8600 Gts, go with ECS, the 95 Watt TDP is more than enough unless you want to stick phenom X4 in it ( I doubt it), this will give you great price/performance ratio...
