Which Mobo to use ?

I took my pc to a repair shop where they told me my mobo P5WDG2 WS and cpu were gone, I bought replacements E6600 and P5N32-e Sli Plus mobo

Both work great!

I RMA my mobo and cpu and they have now been replaced aparently the cpu worked fine??

my flatmate wants to upgrade his machine so whatever I don't use i will sell to him

should I keep the P5N32-e Sli or go back to the replacement P5WDG2 WS

other sys spec
Nvidia 7950 G2
4Gb crosair 6400 c twin pairs
Raptor 120Gb 8mb cache HD
2 Hyundai 19"

I'd keep the new board. not even sure if your E6600 will work in the old board

and this nvidia chipset

vista gives my machine a 5.2 rating running at stock speed!

so when you say your new one I asume you mean the P5N32-e Plus board?

thanks
