Personally when buying tech i do 3 things:-
  • Check reliability
  • Check if it fits my needs
  • Check that funds allow purchase

Anything after that isn't important because if i'm after a good board/cpu etc for OCing then that's the first 2 points taken into account for example. No point asking now, you've already bought it.

Both boards are good. Its a matter of personal preference really.

I personally prefer the CHV.
