Gigabyte has been good with me but their warranty policy is a bit flawed IMO.

Let's say you bought the motherboard on January 30th, 2009 and the serial number for the Gigabyte motherboard starts with SN0801. Now, any other company, you would have warranty 3 years after the purchase date which would be around January 20th, 2012. Gigabyte, however, doesn't give you warranty for 3 years after the purchase date. Their warranty is for 3 years after the manufacture date. The first 4 numbers in the serial are the manufacture date so in this case it would be the first week of 2008. So your warranty is only from 09 - 11. You're losing a year of warranty because it sat in someone's warehouse before you bought it. I don't like that aspect at all about Gigabyte because I lost out of 9 months of warranty on my current Gigabyte mobo.

I would like to go with either the Foxconn or the DFI but I gotta see if anyone has any good advice about either one of them.
