The ABIT board boasts a series of voltage and performance related options in the BIOS, as well as its default support for the 200 MHz FSB at default chipset voltage and its ability to unlock the Tbred-b and Barton core AMD processors. Coupled with the right RAM, the NF7-S can take a 2500+ Barton core CPU to a 220+ MHz FSB without breaking a sweat

this is from HardOCP site.

and from A1Electronics.com:

The Vss pin on the AMD Socket is connected to ground letting the Abit NF7-S nForce2 BIOS automatically unlock the AMD Athlon XP Thoroughbred-B multiplier settings (under XP 2700) when fitted making this an ideal AMD Athlon XP motherboard for overclocking but not on all AMD Athlon XP processors. This is a feature of the NVIDIA nForce2 chipset

does this mean only cpu's before the week 39 or whatever it is? or are they saying "any" barton/Tbred?
and what does it mean (under 2700)? 2700 down?
