Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C, March 22 2002 --
In a profound testament to the talent of ABIT Engineering, Tom's Hardware Guide
has named ABIT's BD7-RAID as one of three recommended boards in an exhaustive
across-the-board comparison of 19 Intel DDR 845 motherboards.
As per usual, the reviewers noticed the ABIT Engineered features that have made
ABIT a trusted name amongst performance and overclocking enthusiasts: "…both the
RDRAM motherboards TH7-II and the BD7-RAID that we tested here are able to run
the next generation Pentium 4 models, clocked at 133 MHz FSB (533 MHz
quad-pumped). Other motherboards can do this, too, but none of them are able to
run the PCI, AGP and the main memory synchronously, as does the BD7-RAID…Though
other motherboards also allow 133 MHz FSB, they will overclock the PCI and the
AGP heavily as well. The Abit BD7-RAID gives you the option to adjust the
relative clock speeds of the PCI and AGP, thus it wins our second
recommendation."
Against some extreme competition, ABIT once again proved it is top of the heap
when it came down to Tom's Hardware Guide making the BD7-RAID one of their three
recommendations out of 19: "Due to the excellent overclocking features and the
option to run the P4 at 133 MHz FSB within system specs (meaning that the AGP
and PCI are not overclocked), combined with hardware features such as on-board
sound and IDE RAID, this board wins our recommendation."
