Abit NF8-V

Abit NF8-V ... HyperTransport Technology enables massive overall system bandwidth to drive the latest 3D games and applications, and Cool n' Quiet Technology ensures that the system remains cool in the heat of competition. 2 DDR 400 DIMM slots support a whopping 2GB of memory. Storage options are taken care of with the 2 SATA ports and 2 IDE ports that adorn the NF8, making future storage expansion a simple task. Built-in USB 2.0 allows the NF8 to connect to the hottest high-speed peripherals, and optional IEEE 1394 functionality is a godsend for multimedia buffs. With a robust feature set, the NF8 makes an ideal backbone for your Athlon 64-based dream rig.

Like all ABIT motherboards, the NF8 is built with Bulletproof Technology - a new standard in terms of Quality, Reliability, Stability, and Engineering. Bulletproof Technology begins with selecting the highest quality components available. ABIT uses only Japanese-made capacitors on ABIT branded motherboards - capacitors that cost several times more than regular capacitors. While others try to cut components, ABIT puts quality first. Bulletproof Technology also means stability. The NF8 has passed the Torture Test, a series of looping demos and benchmarks designed to tax the board far beyond normal use. If the motherboard has been Torture Tested and Passed, it is built to last. Reliability is another component of Bulletproof Technology. To help users identify devices and components that are problem-free with ABIT motherboards, ABIT has developed its ABIT Approved Program. After hardware has passed compatibility testing, it is given the ABIT Approved Seal. The ABIT Approved Seal lets ABIT users understand which devices and components they should be choosing to complete their systems. Add to all of this exclusive ABIT Engineered features such as OC Strips, and the NF8 is truly in a class by itself.
