abit IP45 MAX
abit IP45 Max is based on Intel P45/ICH10R pair of
chipsets.. It supports LGA775 FSB1600 45nm Processors. The board also supports
Dual DDR3 1600, Dual X8 CrossFire, GbE, SATA, IEEE1394, HD 7.1, Silent OTES,
μGuruTM Tech and is Vista HW Ready.
Something that caught my attention is the odd
shaped heatpipe design. abit chose silver over gold. The colour scheme is pretty
nice, a Black-Silver-Blue scheme.
