Question changing build

Had a question about two things in my build below. The SSD and the Motherboard.

I changed my motherboard from the EVGA X58 LE Edition SLI (Intel X58 Chipset) to the one below due to them not carrying the LE board anymore. My question is what is the difference between the motherboards offered.
EVGA x58 Classifed 3x SLI
EVGA x58 FTW3 Edition SLI
EVGA x58 SLI 3 Edition

Should I definitely choose one over the other the prices vary quite a bit across the three boards.

Also I have selected a 120GB SSD from Corsair. I at first picked an Intel one and am wondering if I should go back to an Intel SSD. I have been reading/researching abit more and it seems to me that Intel makes better/faster/more reliable SSD's. The reason I picked such a large SSD was because I was going to put games some games on it just for the reduced loading times. Should I switch to a 80GB Intel SSD for improved quality even though it has less space?

Currently only in stage 1 so I'd like to email in any changes before I move too far along the stage line.

Any other advice on other parts is welcome as well =-) Can't wait till it gets here.
