It's a good looking board, and has decent features.

How many more? 2 or 4? You're paying quite a bit more for the extra 2 (8 total) on the P5Q compared to the P5Q-SE (6 total) which is cheaper and has the same audio panel.

P5Q-SE is about R150 cheaper and has 2 fewer SATA ports than the P5Q does.

if im spending R1600 im sure that R150 is not going to break me

Gigabyte has 8x SATA ports.
unfortunatly their new boards is quite steeply priced
