I personally always prefer the infinite gyro and rarely stick the new one in decks. This is mainly due to the reshuffle effect and since the new one can be taken via reanimation from the opponents.
The new one is absolutely playable in just about any deck capable of making the mana. Hard to counter exile 2x is valuable, even if he doesn't hit the table or attack before being exiled/bounced/elked/etc.
But being honest, both are liabilities if opponents tend to play any sort of treachery/gilded drake/bribery effects. Because of this I rarely run even gyro any more.
Semi-off topic, I also prefer gyro over the old kozilek because I value the indestructible effect over draw-4. Blanking specific removal is nice on something that mana-intensive to resolve.
