Thanks for the heads up. We'll update the next Buyer's Guide.
As for a replacement, well, you're looking at a top end motherboard. Have you looked at the
ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII EXTREME? It's an EATX like the Gigabyte SOC. (Expensive, too!)

I have been a Gigabyte motherboard user for 5 years, but last Fall I tried the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII GENE which is a mATX motherboard. I really liked the sophisticated BIOS that allowed for assisted OC'ing, and it's ease for hackintoshing. When I had an opportunity to pick up a ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII HERO ATX motherboard and i7-6700K at a good price, I didn't hesitate. So, look into the EXTREME...if you got the budget.
