We finally had a chance to see long delayed Abit IN9-32X MAX motherboard based on Nforce 680i chipset. The funny thing is that every single design that differs from a reference one was not as good overclocker.
Abit board is passively cooled and in extreme overclocking
condition can hit 450 MHz FSB speed still less then Nvidia reference / EVGA
board.
The board supports DDR 2 memory at 1066 or higher and CPU's
including the Quad Core and Core 2 Duo even at FSB 1333 MHz.
The board comes with three PCIe 16X slots, two PCI slots and
a single PCIe 1X. The chipset is completely passively cooled. The board has a
raiser card for WiFi support .
The samples should be out any day now.
