Abit always come out a bit late....when soket a da time also like tat ..a bit late

See, the 790gx fever has started. Buy and review please.

@PWS, Intel quaddy people shossh. We are AMD people here.

I feel Biostar is better than Abit. But for me only gigabyte and asus.

Dun la. Let me stay

I still got AMD rig at my hometown. My dad using.

Patiently wait for bro dblooi's review.

-pWs-

Why dont u get an AMD rig and join this club

Shoosh shoosh. Joking lo.
Your dad using? OC?
My dad using amd as well. Non OC that is.

How do we tackle the motherboard heat issue if we don't have built in heat pipe?
Fan is good enough? I did try blowing a fan to my 780 chipset before. Only drop 2c.

Yea...3600 Brisbane + TA690G.
No oc also. LOL

Your 780 hot? How about change 3rd party cooler?

-pWs-

Your dad its not you using it wor
I am sure,if Deneb can fold faster than his current rigs,he will sure take Deneb one
The Lord of Folding .
Hmm cooling..i think fan is enough.i put my CM Cooling on top of Abit Silent Pipe(PWM)drops 10C
8c Fan thou

I bought for my dad one ma. Consider mine lor

-pWs-

OC la. Teach you apa your OC skill. He will be so proud.

Did try to put 80MM very good fan. Still sucks. Ended up put those motherboard fan.
Now sell already la. Waiting for new board.

Your dad folds too?

bro, d board seems to have problem doin high htt... i'm stuck around 25x, can't push it further than that. d ACC seems like an extra & useless feature...

i doubt they'll do, Abit target more on end users (or can i say less oc minded) while biostar & dfi are focus on enthusiasts (or half)...

gigabyte had raise their bar in recent years, but still if i were to choose between giga & asus, my heart will still say asus. in general dfi pawns all...

it depends much on how they design & implement d heatpipe, sum looks gud but perform poorly... like abit ax78 silent otes... dun get me wrong, it was a great for its price for d otes thingy was really a let down...

He do not want to oc
No la...Only me fold.

@ah_khoo
How bout the new board?
I request for result.

Bad News

It is confirmed that abit, maker of high-end and gaming motherboards will exit the business of motherboards. The production is to stop by the end of this year. HEXUS.channel has confirmed this as fact from sources close to South East Asian distributors, all of which will be notified by their abit sales contacts from today onwards.

The company will continue to sell motherboards till the end of the year and will honour RMA and warranties for three years subsequently. This first made news as rumours back in May, and back then abit responded that they had no intentions of leaving the market, apparently because they weren't intended to move out back then.

Is this will tempting u guy and gal(imsmiko)



More detail here

oh man.. isn't that enough on the hardware section...
i truly doubt 1.2v @ 4ghz..

Errrr...you're using quaddy right?
have you try to push that proc on other mobo?
kinda strange to me if 790GX cannot oc high.
i have high hope on it

me too, looks like photoshoped result to me
cpu-z validation please.
if it's genuine result, he/she should validate the result.

IMHO, heatpipe without fan is actually pointless. The purpose of putting heatpipe is to transfer heat from a higher energy to lower energy place. But mobo makers put them in between of FETs and chipset == both are also hot.
