The latest ones weren't that good anymore... They no longer lived up to their name of "super-overclockers"... Unless you shell out the extra bucks for Fatal1ty stuff...
Too bad, still have an old Abit mobo for my PIII, and it has never ever given me any worries...

I am surfing the Web as I write this on my Abit BM6 based system. Stuck a Powerleap upgrade CPU in it about 2 years ago (Tualatin Celery 1.2G--the one with the large cache). It's still a damn good machine. I upgraded to a X2 4400+ system in November and, except when I'm massaging huge files in Photoshop, the old beast is just not *that* much slower.

yeah - some of those abit mobo's are still pretty decent - its a shame that abit used the incorrect marketting strategy - too much emphasis on uguru and using old fatal1ty for advertising and also placing too much emphasis on unneccesary items within the bundle that nobody would use instead of just creating boards that enthusisasts would like to use
i still have fond memories of my nf7s v2 and im typing this on an IC7G with a prescott P4 that i have which belongs to a friend - so the older abit mobo's have been good to me - i would have loved to try out the fatal1ty but i just got a asus instead cos it was available at the time and my abit supplier didnt have stock of the abit mobo

That's pretty sad, they made some awesome boards back in the day. I just upgraded from a NF7-S 2.0 that served me very well for over two years (still the best AXP board in my mind), and years before that I had a BM6 for cheap old school Celeron overclocking. I can't say that any of their boards in the post-AthlonXP era have interested me all that much though, at least not compared to some of the others on the market these days. 🙁
I heard they were circling the pan a while back. I blame the Fatal1ty crap they crank out. Personally, you couldn't pay me to have his name on my componants.
I had an Abit board back in the early days of Socket A. Fried the damn northbridge, but it served me well for a good year or there abouts.

Yeah, thought thye had a great product in the NF7 line. As you can see still using my NF7-S v2.
I heard a while back that the engineer behind the NF7 , who was in to consumer OC ability, had a spat and left for DFI. Haven't heard a lot of good stuff about them and OCing since. Could be just BS rumours. Don't personally know if there's any truth to it.
