the NF7 series is the ultimate multimedia platform for the world. Enthusiast
website Systemcooling.net recently announced its list of 2003's best hardware,
and ABIT's NF7-S won as 2003 Mainboard of the Year!
"These days it's extremely tough to pick out one single motherboard that
shines above the rest. A lot of times how well the BIOS are written and
what options are in those BIOS dictate which motherboard will be praised
as the best. But what is easy to see, is the chipset that delivered a
certain group of motherboards to the top. In 2003 that chipset was the
nForce2 from nVidia. It showed us that it can, not only give us the best
stability and performance but with the right equipment can be pushed to
levels other chipsets can only dream of. So knowing that nForce2 has laid
what can be considered the best groundwork we select the ABIT NF7-S ver.
2 as the 2003 motherboard of the year for the AMD platform. The NF7-S
gives us the best overclocking potential, all the goodies like SATA, Dual
DDR 400, AGP 8X, NIC and something that not to many motherboard offer
a 6-Channel Audio and Optical S/PDIF Out. But most importantly it gives
us one of the most robust BIOS out there, making it a tweaker's delight."
