Hey guys,
    Just wondering what people's experience is with these two companies in terms of motherboards.  I'm thinking of geting one of them for a 2.26GHz P4.  Giga has an ICH4 southbridge while Asus only has an ICH2.  Does that make a big enough difference?  Should I wait for the Gigabyte board to come out or go with Asus?
Thanx
Steve

I'm also thinking of getting the P4T-533C board, although i'm really looking forward to some more reviews of this board. :(

Anyone know when the Gigabyte 8IHXP board will be in stores?

The biggest deal of ICH4 is Usb 2, which asus came with it.  
 
I bought the asus last weekend. The only problem I experienced is the following:
 
The machine ran into Cpu/memory synchronization error when CPU FSB is 133x4 and Memory frequency is 133x3 (533cpu/400memory). Luckily, I bought kingston 1066, which both run on 133x4 frequency. Don't know if this is a problem to my particular motherboard, but if you are buying p4t533-c, why buy PC800 memory?
