Gigabyte is considered world-class. they are one of the top 5 motherboard makers in the world, overall their products are pretty good!

I agree with Yield. They make excellent boards and are still the only manufacturer that makes a built-in backup BIOS, so when flashing, you don't have to worry at all. They have excellent support and have constant BIOS updates. Good choice!

I tend to favor them when complete stability is the goal. May not have quite as many tweaking options, but stability is not a problem.

Gigabyte has entered the OCing world with their KT133A mobo and the AMD 760. Gigabytes mobo uses all dips for overclocking which can provide more consistent results than Sof-Menu BIOS Ocing. I rate Gigabyte as the most stable of all mobos, plus the blue is kinda keeewl.
