 Is gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P same as GA-970A-DS3P rev 1.0? if not, whats the difference?. im looking for a good AM3+ 970 motherboard tn this price range and i need front usb 3.0 headers. is there a cheaper alternative or something that looks better at the same price? im willing to spend about $10 more but i cant afford an msi 970 gaming board. thanks in advance !

No, they won't be the same. Any motherboard that has a revision number means that certain changes were made to it from the previous one.

sometimes its just the version of the BIOS included with the board
