I've owned and worked with both boards.
I would say get the ECS board. VRM Cooling (important on a 95watt CPU, more so if you are overclocking.) Debug LED = Very Helpful Right Angle SATA connectors are great to work with as well. Digital Power Management again is nice 6 SATA 3GB/s vs Gigabyte's 5 SATA ports. Ferrite core chokes.

I think the ECS board is better. The reviews kind of worry me but there only seem to be 3 negative ones.
