ABIT NI8-SLI Review????????

[JCGhz]

Newegg has had this board for a couple weeks now or more and the price keeps dropping, ive searched endlessly and could not find one single review. Anyone?Abit NI8-SLI

Any feedback would be apreciated. Ive been waiting for an intel SLI mobo

Well I'd say about 95%+ people here are AMD'ers. And most people here (including myself) woudln't recommend the latest intel processors for their heat issues, and they cost a considerable buck more than AMDs yet their performance is lower >_<.

That said, the board looks solid...Especially with it's passive cooling

SLI sucks on the Intel platform.

Could you point me in the direction to where you got the info to support your intel SLI "sucks" theory?

I appreciate the response and im starting to lean in that (AMD) direction, but ive been on both sides but mostly intel for quite a while now. I really regret selling my FX-55 but my 3.2E @3.8 on air(w/ic7max3) is doing just fine. Ill definitely be upgrading tho. Im still on AGP...lol
