GPT is required for NVMe boot drives and UEFI booting in general (to get Ultra Fast Boot working).
It's also the least problematic option for 3TB+ drives (you can access ~3,5TB max. capacity under standard MBR).

MBR is more compatible and is accessible with any Windows.
If you plan to use XP (32-bit) for what ever reason - it's the way to go.
