I vote ASUS, as the gaming 3 is not a high quality a board. I also prefer ASUS's looks and reputaiton

Well, with an i7, GTX 1080, Full tower and flashy lights, it can obviously only be for one thing:

Solitaire.

ASUS is generally the best mobo brand, but gigabyte is up there too. its probably down to brand loyalty or features. personally i would go with the ASUS due to their reputation, but gigabyte seems ok

Yep I would choose Asus or MSI, just remember you down need a $300 board. You. Can find good options in the $130-$200 range.

I would rather agree on what we share, than fight on what we don't. - Myself
