What motherboards will support the full aspect of this?
Will this one?

Asking, because I heard that gigabite's was not up to standard, wanted to make sure this one was before purchase

There is no motherboard that supports PCIe 3.0.



although some MB's have the physical slot there are none that can support it as it will not be implemented until Ivy Bridge series processors come out.

It is possible that some of the new 1155 MB's will support Ivy Bridge, but it is not certain.

The ASRock P67 EXTREME4 GEN3 has 2 PCIe 3.0 x16 slots and will support the Ivy Bridge processor.

Saying they don't support it isn't exactly right, there are motherboards out now with it, just requires new processor to use. Ivy-Bridge is supposed to be a replacement for Sandy-Bridge and go in the same sockets, I can't rightly tell you 100% Ivy-Bridge will work in your 1155 motherboard, but there's decent chance it will.
