Hmmm...don't know if this is a good answer ;-)

The state match "just" allows you to match the well known states NEW,
ESTABLISHED, RELATED and INVALID. The conntrack match gives you some
more insight on the information, e.g. you have additional states 
SNAT and DNAT, or you can match by original source or dest address,
or use the in-kernel conntrack's internal states (ASSURED...).

Never needed this myself, just looked it up in the iptables(8) manpage.
