This coincides with Intel offering a game bundle with their CPUs to move old stock.

Why would Giga care whether I buy just their mobo or mobo+CPU. $80 care no less!!
This sounds like one of those Intel's incentives. Not saying it is.
Intel gives chipsets for free to Giga and they offer rebates if u buy an Intel CPU. That way Intel "is not paying" in cash like on IBM case (?)
Seriously, there's little room for different interpretations here xD

I made similar deal with my Asus Z97+4690K combo, worked out fine.
This looks like a good offer aswell, tho i wouldnt be interrested in a gigabyte motherboard after the horror stories on poor component quality i come across.

I thought they were giving money back to the buyers of entry level motherboards after they changed components for lower quality ones.

There would be lot of Kaby Lake products that will be redundant with Coffee Lake. It's also probably a good reason why Coffee Lake is currently hard to come by, people are holding out for the 6 core. Reducing prices is a great incentive for those that can't afford, or justify the extra expense associated with Coffee Lake systems. These will have to go up against the Zen refresh coming out next year, Ice Lake won't be available until around the time of the major Zen update.
