I advised him to hold off until the BIOS update was available, but at that moment the only version listed was the initial release BIOS. He submitted a return request and is currently awaiting a new unit.
It seems the latest BIOS update has resolved the issue reported by Gigabyte and users since launch. I’m planning to purchase the Aorus Elite AX DDR4 as originally intended, since my Bestbuy membership covers a 60-day return window. That gives me time to test it before deciding if it’s a good fit. I’ve had mixed experiences with MSI in the past, so I’m okay with switching boards if necessary.

I'll make sure to refresh this entry after everything is set up. Thanks to everyone for their support—it really means a lot. Appreciate it!
