I like the look of the gaming 7. Wish it had an actual photo in the manual though, I'm getting impatient :p

do any of the gigabyte boards have a proper M.2 / SataExpress implementation using 4x PCIe 3.0 lanes from the CPU, rather than the disappointing rumour of 2x PCIe 2.0 lanes from the PCH chip?

ASRock are offering an 'ultra M.2' on all their boards which is 4x 3.0. They have some custom controllers though which might take a while for Gigabyte to offer.

Wasn't SATA Express dropped from X99? And I don't see any drives for it on the market yet

Well these manuals claim SATA Express. I just haven't seen any drives.
And speaking of M.2, I haven't seen any ~#T drives on that form factor either

TB SSDs of any format are rare enough, but I think we'll see them in M.2 before too long.

I don't know about "rare enough". Samsung, Crucial, Sandisk, Kingston, OCZ, Intel, all do drive which are about 1TB
