I have sent an email to Gigabyte support regarding this, but am yet to hear from them...

This is the first time I bought a Gigabyte board, I've had it for 4 days, and had nothing but trouble.
I can't believe they released a faulty BIOS to the public, and I also can't believe they left it on the site after people complained about it!
I'm not sure my reseller will even agree to replace this board (and RMAing it will probably cost me when it reaches customs)...

Let's just say that currently I'm very very sorry I didn't listen to a friend who told me to buy an ASUS board
The new F5 bios, dated July 21 has been on the Taiwan site since a.m. of the 21st. Are you sure that's where it d/l from? Although I didn't get to try it yet I was assured that the most recent F5 was ok. Perhaps it's not?
