ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Ease of installation and setup, manuals were easy to read and follow, and packaging was excellent.

Weakness: IDE connectors were difficult to reach once the motherboard was installed into the case. Tech support website and knowledge base was not not very helpful in troubleshooting.

This motherboard is awesome. This was my first adventure at building my own brand spanking new machine. I am using it with an Intel Pentium 4 - 2.60GHz Processor with 800MHz FSB and 1GB of PC3200 DDR RAM. After reading many magazine and online reviews of this board I found it on pricegrabber.com and bought it online much cheaper than if I would have purchased locally at a retail outlet. This...

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: ABIT Quality, Tons of Features, Overclockability, Support for up to 4 SATA Drives

Weakness: IDE Connectors could be in a better spot(located in lower right corner of board)

I've had this board for about 2 months now and it is rock solid! I've been able to OC my P4 3.2 to 3.85Ghz with the greatest of ease. The built in 5.1 audio and Digital IO is great for multimedia fanatics. It has 4 DDR slots and will support 4 Gigs of ram. Active cooling on the NorthBridge is also a bonus over other motherboards such as the ASUS P4P800. If your a gamer, grab this board, any...

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Very fast and reliable, with just about every feature you could want in a motherboard

Weakness: (1) The IDE connectors are not very conveniently located; (2) The ATX shield included with the motherboard is a little flimsy

I've built two systems now with the Abit IC7-G and have been startled by the screaming performance of this board, especially when mated with a fast processor and memory (I use Intel's Pentium 4 3.2C and the Corsair TWINX10243200C2PT memory modules). Abit's manual is very straightforward for a relative novice like myself, and installation was pretty easy... no need to set jumpers to get this baby...

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Very good built-in audio. Multiple USB inputs, firewire. SATA for hard drives.

Weakness: None, after replacement.

I have owned this board for over a year. After several months, the purchased board failed. Abit replaced with little delay. I think the system chipset wasn't cooled properly. The replacement had a chipset fan much bigger, than the first board. Another review comments on upgrading problems. I have replaced the video three times, increased the RAM and changed the CPU. Changed the board to a new...

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Overclock-ability. Stability. Reliability

Weakness: Serial ATA compatibility within BIOS

I've been a loyal ABIT customer for the past eight years. I previously owned an ABIT BH-6 mobo. I was really happy with my last ABIT board, in which I was able to overclock my PII 300A celeron to 450 MHZ, then upgrade to a PIII 600 a couple years later. It was a stable motherboard. The IC7-G is no exception. I've been pleased with its stability but I haven't yet overclocked it. The only issues...

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: IC7-G supports up to four SATA drives. 800MHz FSB.

Weakness: Could be a better location for IDE connectors, cables are not long enough for the distance from upper bays of Mid Tower case to IDE connectors.

This board is performing very well. It has such great features like North Bridge cooler, support for SATA drives, USB and Firefire connectors. Easy to install. Well written manual is good addition. Stable and fast. Highy recommended.

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Stability, OC features.

Weakness: None.

I am very pleased with this board. It has performed flawlessly so far. I am using it with the 2.6C cpu OCed to 3.2 completely stable, along with PC3200 at 5/4 ratio. All features perform with out a hitch. Temp is 38 C at idle using stock cooling. Highly recommended.

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Plenty USB ports, easy to set up.

Weakness: Location of IDE connectors.

Overall a very nice motherboard with lots of features. It was very easy to set up and install. The only downside I found was with the location of the IDE connectors. It was very difficult to connect the IDE cables to them.

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Initally easy to set up. OK performance.

Weakness: Only lasted 11 months. Wouldn't recommend any upgrade, it may quit working.

I got this board because it is one of the highest rated boards but after 11 months I am really disappointed in the quality. This is a very fragile board. If you have it just leave it alone. I worked with many other boards and have done many succesfull upgrades without any problems. I would never buy one of these again. Next time I am sticking with American names like Intel(the only one by the...

ABIT Desktop Motherboard - Intel Intel 82875P MCH...

Strengths: Overclocking, looks, active North Bridge cooler, cool USB/Firewire accesory

Weakness: IDE ports are located very low so make sure you get a long cable.

This board has been great to me thus far. Setup was a snap and the contents of the box were nice especially the extras. I am using an Intel 3.0 GHz chip and 1GB of Ram with this board. Temperatures are rock solid and performance is great. Can't wait to OC!
