Go with other then Crosshair, you are not paying for a chipset but only for a name. Here you have a better board with better layout and much more place to work, same chipset and everything like...100$ under???

the msi boards looks good.

but i have a p6n-sli now in an old compy and dont like it. dont know if its msi support or what but just dont like it.

which giga would be best for ddr3?

MA790FXT-UD5P for sure, with 10 sata and much place to work there is no contender to it. IMO the msi have to many PCI-e port wich is not needed. If you want some more precision on these board just ask;)
