I have no real opinion on that MB. I've never owned a Gigabyte so I

I personally like the Asus brand for flashing BIOS as it can be done
from a USB stick. If Gigabyte supports anything like that (i.e. -
doesn't require Windows or DOS or a floppy to flash BIOS) then it's
probably a good candidate.

Asus support isn't great. Their websites are slow and everyone seems
to complain about lack of communication when they have problems.
Again, I don't know anything about Gigabyte on that account.

Good luck.

I recently bought a Gigabyte mobo and it has Q-Flash.  It will update
the BIOS without needing a OS.   According to the book, you just
download the update and put it on a USB stick, must be FAT32/16/12,
and hit the end key when the BIOS screen comes up.  It sounds pretty
easy.  I have not done this yet tho.

Hope that helps.

Thank you  Dale,

The Asus P6X58D-E motherboard seems ready for USB-3.0
Does Linux support USB-3.0 technology ?

I think mine does here. I don't have anything that is USB 3 to test it tho. I don't think the mobo you selected supports it hardware wise tho. I think that was what I read in the link you posted. May want to check and make sure.
