MB review says the ABIT AG8 is an Excellent Motherboard

Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C., September 13th, 2004 - MB Review; the home of the motherboard review database has recently took a look at ABIT's Intel LGA775 socket based motherboard with DDR support; AG8. Here are the highlights:

Let's take a look of the packaging and you will not be surprised how much effort we spent on our documentation "The real strength of ABIT packaging is the quality of the documentation. The AG8, much like the AA8-DuraMAX, does not fail to disappoint in this category. ABIT has included a short, but detailed Quick Installation guide to help get the system up and running if you're new to the world of building PC's. They've also thrown in detailed manuals covering both the motherboard and the uGuru software."

Let's here what MB review has to say about one of the ABIT Engineered Features; Overclocking Strips "One thing you might notice is the large silver strips that are laid out horizontally throughout the processor core voltage supply portion of the motherboard. These are the well known ABIT Overclocking Strips. Much as we saw with the AA8-DuraMAX, ABIT has brought back their Overclocking Strips in order to help with the power delivery and overclocking capabilities of their motherboards. These strips will be needed to helps deliver the power needed to the processor for overclocking, though with recent revelations it seems these strips are needed for the Northbridge instead."

Conclusion, "The product package for the AG8 is exactly what I was expecting. ABIT recently announced their "3rd Eye" and "Guru Clock" support for the AG8. This new technology adds some flavor to ABIT's packaging that others have not yet venture into. It also allows for ever present monitoring of critical system measurements on an exterior clock / digital readout display. If you want all of the added features, then the AA8-DuraMAX is a solid choice, but if you're looking to save some dough, look at the AG8 instead. The ABIT AG8 is an excellent motherboard, with competitive performance, a stellar BIOS thanks to uGuru, and fair overclocking."
