MSI or Gigabyte

Hello,
Is the MSI GF615M-P31 GeForce 7025 AM3 Motherboard better than the GIGABYTE M68MT Motherboard. Either one can support AMD Phenom II X6 1055T CPU. I just want to know which would be more reliable.

MSI and Gigabyte are both reliable brands. The two things you should compare out of the two are features and price. After that, don't look back and go for it. However, I do recommend getting a AM3+ motherboard. There are some around for only $100. You will be able to upgrade to bulldozer with AM3+ motherboard [backward compatible with AM3]
