looks pretty good from above, may be wrong though. Dont know about all these new technologies though. PCI-X, DDR2, LGA775. wont be upgrading soon anyway.

The first link is 'forbidden', the second works... Looks like rubies to me!! Maybe Abit finally got a clue!

Cannot figure out why that link does not work for you. If you scroll down to the mobo pic in the second link and click on the image it will expand. It is the same link though........wierd

Wonder if it is only the review units that have the good caps though. Their last 865 875 boards had some bios issues though (along with every other manufacturer) these boards should be good to purchase after a few revisions i guess. Kudos to abit if they keep with the rubies.

All the new Abit boards seem to use all Rubycon, even the cheap VA-10 I complained about a few weeks ago, all the latest ones i have seen use Rubycon.
