yeah, I'm the one to make the statement based on the reviews I read.
However, I've been using Gigabytes for a while now....so....
but I've used Asus too, though I don't have any active boards from them
now. Seems for the same money (and less with the combo deal) they are
the winner. I don't think the review really said it was that much
better than the others (pros & cons) but features do count. RMA
behavior is very important too, though.

Thanks for the "butt-in", Thane.
I was considering a Gigabyte at the same price. I do see some
additional features too. and additional PCI-e at x4, plue firewire
and the usb 3.0 bracket. Those are "hard" features.
I'd go Asus over Gigabyte, but Gigabyte isn't bad. Wasn't there a
review post on the list recently that picked the Asus Sandybridge
motherboard as the one to get?
Advance replacement means they send you a replacement mobo secured
with CC and then you return the bad one?
Yeah. Takes about a week. Even the non-advance replacement is
reasonably quick (about two weeks) which is much better than anything
I've gotten from any other company.
