Which mobo is better

I decided to go with either one of these
-MSI "K7N2 Delta-L" nForce2 Ultra 400 Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket A

or

-GIGABYTE GA-7VT600-L KT600 SOCKET A

I'd go with the MSI with the nForce2 chipset over the gigabyte with the VIA.

1) I don't trust gigabyte for the relyability in their motherboards
2) VIA chipsets aren't *bad* per say, but they're not great either.
