I would use both. Razor2 is more effective than DCC, but DCC seems to generate more errors in connecting, so perhaps it could have the same recognition rate as Razor2. There is no guarentee that either one won't produce false positives or that it has an 100% uptime. So using both (and perhaps even Pyzor) for me seems a sensible thing.
