I'd still go for the Gigabyte MOBO.  I am looking on ebay at a slightly used 
8KNXP 478pin P4 similar
to that in my main machine to upgrade my wife's machine but then I saw a 
Gigabyte AMD 64 board and
now looking at that......................!

I do like the dual BIOS and the 6 phase power supply to CPU and things.
