GM8 vs EQ6

Heyy all, my bdays coming up and i was wandering which mount performs better when it comes to light weight photography. I have an ED80 with Canon 30D. I may be getting an OAG with a Meade DSI for guiding. Question is, i already have a HEQ5 Non pro, but id like autoguiding function as well as goto. which would make my life awesome... Which would be better? I heard GM8 motors and tracking is better than Synta mounts but EQ6 has higher payload and price seems similar when it comes to second hand. Advice anyone?

cheers
tony
