Abit AN8 32X

[...]There was a time when Abit's motherboards boasted more onboard peripherals and overclocking options than the competition, but those days are long gone. DFI's LANParty boards have the AN8 32X beat when it comes to overclocking options, and just about every recent nForce4 motherboard can match its Firewire and extra Serial ATA RAID chips. Most high-end boards are offering a second Gigabit Ethernet port these days, too, a feature that's conspicuously missing from the AN8 32X.

With its overclocking options and onboard peripherals trailing what's offered by the competition, the AN8 32X's unique appeal lies with its passive chipset cooler and unmatched fan speed control and hardware monitoring capabilities. If those features are at the top of your wish list, the AN8 32X is easily the best board on the market. However, enthusiasts who rank more exotic overclocking or additional peripherals higher will be better served by other offerings. Abit will have to at least match—if not exceed—those offerings if it hopes to recapture the glory of legends like the BH6
