Does anyone have any experience with one of these? They apparently have some issues with some Gigabyte mobo's, and I have a Gigabyte P55-UD3, and need a USB3.0 expansion card to use the Black Magic intensity shuttle if I get it. Either that or I just get a Hauppauge HD PVR.

So, any ideas if it will work or any different recommendations?

I don't have one, but looking at the reviews on Newegg, most people with Gigabyte boards have been able to get it to work.

Ok I think I may have found a more suitable card, as it's actually made by Gigabyte, the Gigabyte GA-USB3. The main difference I can see between the two is what Black Magic explains to me - "The USB 3.0 expansion card must be one of the following: * x4 lane PCI Express. This card can be fitted in a x4 lane or faster slot in any supported series of motherboard. We recommend the Asus U3S6. * x1 lane PCI Express 2.0. This card can be fitted in a x1 lane or faster PCI Express 2.0 slot in any supported series of motherboard. We recommend the Gigabyte GA-USB3 and the Shintaro USB 3.0 PCIe expansion card." The Gigabyte card is x1 lane rather than x4. I know jack all about PCI, could you please explain the difference here?
