Hey all,

Just saw an Abit mobo as part of a rig I am planning to purchase and am not too sure how Abit fair, or how the mobo fairs in general.
I did a little of my own research and found it was pretty good and stable, but I am not as technically savvy as some of you here so I just thought that you guys may be able to help me out.

This is the name of the mobo: Abit IP35-Pro Intel P35 (Socket LGA775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

(when googling the mobo)

Thank you all very much in advance.

P.s. if you could get me bk asap because there are limited quantities of the PC left; thanks).
 
Though I've never used them personally, I've heard that they're usually very good and reliable. Overclocking support seems to be good too,
 
The IP35 series is supposed to be very good, and Abit/abit is a well respected manufacturer.
 
yeh - i am getting the ip35 pro so i am hoping it'll b as good as everyone says. i'll let you guys know how it is when i get it (as well as what the rest of the new rig is like).

thnx
 
Yeah, abit has been a rocky company. They were one of the best (comparable with ASUS) back in the day, but then their quality and board layouts went for the worse, but they had soem sort of market change (believe they were acuired by some company) and they are regaining their good reputation.
 
Like said above I use to like Abit boards really well but seems like there quailty control went out the door for awhile but they did get bought out a year or two ago. Maybe there making a come back.
 
*The only Abit mobo that i ever had decided to die on me after a month, that were a few year ago though.
 
Any company will have a less than stellar product. It comes down to them continuing to offer sub-par products or fixing them.

The old Abit seemed to not value some of their engineers. They left and went to DFI, which was one of those no-name brands. That was pre-Socket A era, and look at the company now. DFI is known as one of the best companies to consider for overclocking. They had some bumps in the road with early boards, but that seemed to pay off with their nForce 4 line.

Abit screwed up and then was bought out. Their reputation is coming back, and so far, the IP35 is one of the best P35 boards out there. Ironically, another solid choice is Gigabyte, a brand you wouldn't touch if you even thought about overclocking.
