Does anyone know what the best computer chip for a 2008 v6 SE would be?

Nissan's don't use an easily replaceable chip. It has to be soldered onto the computer board. Without knowing what you have in mind, it's hard to give you suggestions. If you are looking for a power programmer, Superchips has one that is pretty good, but don't expect huge gains in power. If you are looking into making some major mods to the engine and exhaust, you may want to look into having JWT re-work your ECM.

I have a super chips cortex tuner which may be a better route than "chipping" your Pathfinder. I have heard great things about Bully Dog as well. I have an 87 Octane tune in now and use the Towing performance tune when pulling. This is for a Xterra but I would believe that it can/ should work for a Pathy as well.
