The supermicro board with the HE chipset should have higher memory bandwidth, as the HE supports memory interleaving. I haven't been able to find anyone selling the 370DE6 motherboard yet. Tyan supposedly makes a few serverworks boards that are similar to these models. Supermicro also makes some LE chipset motherboards, like the 370DLR, that would be more comparable to the ASUS CUR-DLS.
