ABIT AL8 Review
(1 Comment) »- The AL8 is sold for about $150, which is a quite competitive price for a motherboard with these features.
- Good performance
- Dual RAID
- Gigabit Ethernet
- Good on-board Audio
- Overclocking issues
The ABIT AL8 is a very solid Intel board with great features, good performance and support for Dual-Core CPUs. ABIT's proprietary uGuru technology offers exceptional monitoring options as well.
Overclocking works good, once you know how to properly change the BIOS settings for overclocking, but without them you are lost.
If ABIT used their passive Silent OTES on the board, this would be an awesome media PC board - enough performance for all HDTV needs, great on-board audio with SPDIF, but still quite silent.
