HardOCP System Building Guide
Recommends ABIT IC7-MAX3 and NF7-S
ABIT's boards sweep both AMD and Intel categories

Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., November 26, 2003 - Enthusiast hardware site HardOCP.com has released their new System Building Guide 0403 recommendations, and for both the Intel and AMD segments, ABIT's IC7-MAX 3 and NF7-S are recommended respectively.

HardOCP talks about their system guide in general: "With the holiday season upon us, many of you will be building new boxes, modding new boxes, upgrading old ones, and asking Santa or Momma Clause for that extra something special. What we want to do here is give you our recommendations for putting together a killer gaming and overclocking rig, while not spending your entire life savings and having to go into indentured servitude to pay it off. Being very budget minded persons ourselves, we try our best to purchase hardware that will give us the most bang for our buck."

Here is their AMD motherboard recommendation, the NF7-S: "Depending on whom you talk to and where you look, there are currently two favorites in the AMD camp for motherboards, both being based on the NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra400 chipset. These motherboards are the ABIT NF7-S v2.0 and…(another brand)... Both boards have their own unique strengths and weaknesses, but the ABIT edges out the...(other)...board as far as pure overclocking potential."

And on the Intel side, the IC7-MAX3: "There's really only one motherboard that stands above the rest in the Intel camp - the ABIT IC7-MAX3. This hardware masterpiece boasts incredible voltage and performance related options, as well as the OTES cooling system and a plethora of built-in components. No other board to my knowledge has the sheer amount of overclocking potential by default."
