MSI vs Soltek?

[EagleSnipa2]

Which should I get? I can afford either...

MSI "K8T NEO2-FIR" VIA K8T800 Pro Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket 939 CPU -RETAIL

or

SOLTEK "SL-K8TPro-939" VIA K8T800 Pro Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket 939 CPU -RETAIL
http://www.newegg.com/app/view...amp;manufactory=BROWSE

NOTE: I'll have a $2000 price cap hopefully...So I'd like the best of the best...Not too expensive due to the fact that I might be getting an X800XT...

between those two, my vote is for the soltek.

If you're overclocking don't get the Soltek board; otherwise any of the two will be fine, and you can probably look at the features in them. Also consider the ABIT AV8.

uhh, never get msi, they are very bad quality, UNLESS you like rmaing like 40 times, and then going to a different board company such as asus or shuttle, only to realize that it was the msi boards, not anything else.
