It's a good board, but no AGP/PCI lock implemented. No dividers implemented. VIA says their chipset does have PCI lock.

I'm glad to see Abit finally going to a nice big (quiet) heatsink on the NB rather than a rackety fan. I've had to replace two of them.

I doubt this Motherboard has no PCI/AGP lock. It would be stupid. The chipset comes with PCI Lock as standard so you cannot tell me Abit went out of their way to omit it from the MB Design  |

It runs dividers up to 1/6. No more, and there is no way to set divider.
The nForce3 150 chipset had PCI lock capabilities and many boards did not have this implemented when first released.
And VIA has been known to be, basically, lieing about PCI locks.
