Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., September 16^th 2003 - The venerable industry leader in computer hardware shopping, Computer Shopper Magazine is featuring the Ultimate Motherboard Upgrade Guide in their October issue. The board of choice? The ABIT IC7-G got the Editor's Choice in the round up. Read on:

"It would be an understatement to say that we were knocked out by ABIT Computer's S160 IC7-G. Based on Intel's hot new 875P (Canterwood) chipset, the IC7-G's 800MHz system bus and dualchannel memory controller produce blazing performance when paired with better-quality DDR400 RAM and the latest Pentium 4 processors with HyperThreading technology.

The 875P implements Intel's Performance Acceleration Technology, which, when used with RAM fast enough to handle its aggressive timing-- such as our Kingston HyperX PC3500 testbed modules--shaves two clock cycles from every memory access. The IC7-C takes advantage of this power with extensive BIOS-based overclocking features that let you tweak processor, AGP, and memory voltages and adjust the frontside bus (FSB), AGP, and PCI bus speeds without ever touching a jumper.

It may be the priciest board we looked at, but in this case, you get your money's worth."
