Thoughts on Abit UL8

[Reapsy01]

Thinking of using one in a system coz they are inexpensive. The main thing I want to know is do they work ok with a 20 pin power supply?

 

[Wentelteefje]

Yeah, they'll work just fine with a 20-pin connector, given that the power supply is powerful enough... However, I don't really see the need for a 24-pin connector on this motherboard... It doesn't have PCIe, where the extra 4 pins were meant for normally... You'll be just fine...

Oh no I thought it was pci-e. hmmm I'll have to find another cheap board. Thanks.

ABIT UL8 Pro will be released soon (I hope). Some pic here.

This is a fantastic board, for those who need AGP 8X compatibility.

After fighting to get an K8T Neo2-FIR up and running (STILL not there, after 2 months) , it was such joy to plug everything into this board and have it fire right up.

Recognized my PQI memory perfectly the first time. (This is a FIRST in building systems for me!)

Cannot say enough good things about my UL8, am now an ABit customer exclusively.
