Glad you like your new board. I've only had one Giga board, a UD7 from the X58 days. It was a beautiful board, and it felt like a quality product. The bios let it down imho, and maybe the VRM.. lots of sag in the vcore dept. with a hexacore. Sold the board and bought an Asus lol. Although... I did have an Asus die on me this year. I got it used from my brother.. so who knows.. it was quirky. It was replaced by an Asrock. Very nice board with a good bios, no real complaints. I am back with Asus now on AMD and it is smooth sailing so far. This is the first board I've owned where you have to touch a screw driver to the clrtc header.
