There is USB3 on MSI board and I suppose WiFi was disabled in power consumption tests.
Actually you can see power consumption figures of the MSI board yourself (it's the same author so testing methods are the same and numbers are totally comparable).

It seems that Gigabyte design is a shame (consumes 9W more at full load than MSI board).
