I've been struggling with this for the past 8 months. My setup is very similar:

Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-870A-USB3 rev 3.0
BIOS firmware: F4
Processor: Phenon II X6 1055T
Memory: 8 Gb

I've been experiencing the problem since 11.10. Originally it was intermitent and if I rebooted the system 20+ times I could eventially boot without using "acpi=off". Since upgrading to 12.04 I'm unable to boot without passing the acpi=off parameter. Tried booting with older 2.6.x and 3.X kernels to no avail. Since it was intermitent I assumed it was hardware related but am unable to fix by disabling C1E support.
