Pros: ata 66, software clock changes Cons: only one ISA slot
I built my first machine by myself, and through the advice of many gaming magazines, I picked the Abit be6 II. I wanted the most bang for my buck and the ability to upgrade later if I wanted to. While this motherboard is not any lower priced than the...
This excellent motherboard has been in my computer since it was avalible on the market. It offers frontside bus settings up to 200MHZ, a heatsink protected BX chipset, and large capacitors. These "techie" features lead to a motherboard that is...
Abit BE6-II Best and is faster than all last that will be issued on the chip BX. SoftMenuIII tm (FSB: 66/75/83... 200MHZ, with 83 up to 200 - with a step 1ÌÃö, the voltage of a feed of a nucleus CPU is adjusted from 1.3V up to 2.3V with a step 0.05V, is...
Pros: Solid Board, Many options Cons: more clock dividers would have been nice
This is yet another great mother from one of the greatest motherboard manufacturers around. For all you overclockers out there, the soft menu III is the greatest thing around. The ability to increment the front side bus speed in 1 Mhz increments...
Pros: very overclocker friendly Cons: no 1/2 AGP support
ABIT has always encouraged people to push the limits of their machines. They do this in two ways, innovative hardware and a unique BIOS. From the days of the LX chipset when they pioneered Soft Menu and the use of 95MHz Front Side Bus speeds through...
Pros: Great features, jumperless Cons: a bit expensive
I have a slight grudge with Abit because they sold me on the BE-6 when it came out (which sucks). But the BE-6r2 is right on the money. Everything about it is great. This boards actually works. Everything works on it, and I have no complaints....
Pros: Everything -- May be the perfect motherboard Cons: This board is a tad small making massive heatsink/fans cover 1-2 DIMMs
This product is based on the aging 440BX chipset but is still one of the absolute best motherboards available today. The BE6-II recently came out in a 1.2 version which now supports ATA/100 along with RAID Level 0. ABit has a reputation for being a...
Pros: Expandable, overclocker friendly Cons: ATA-66 support is broken, needs another DIMM slot
I've been building computers as a hobby and professionally as well for several years. I've had experience with Asus, SuperMicro, Abit, Tyan, FIC, Micronics and Soyo motherboards. In the Slot-1 arena, the BE-6 R2 has been my favorite.
Pros: Easy to understand manual, great for overclocking, great for newbies Cons: Doesn't support all the new technology
The Abit BE6-II is a great motherboard for not only expirenced computer users such as overclockers, its a great board for beginners learning to make computers. I used the motherboard to build my first computer and it was quite simple to use. The manual...
Pros: Stable, runs well Cons: Hard to find, UDMA66 may be difficult to setup
I have been using an Abit BE6-II board for about 6 months. This board has been stable and really hasn't presented any problems. The only problem I've encountered is with setting up the UDMA66 controller. I believe this problem was more due to...
Pros: Great price, Super stable when overclocked, Thermal heat sensor Cons: Big coolers will block off some DIMM slots
When it comes to motherboards that caters to overclockers, very few companies does it better than Abit. Abit has dominated this arena since the introduction of the first BX6. Since then Abit has continued to improve their products to stay ahead of the...
Pros: 8 IDE Devices, UDMA66 support, Soft-Bios Cons: Only 1 USB Hub, No 6th PCI Slot option
I cannot think of a better topic to write about today (after midnight my time) than a motherboard – because it is now Mother’s Day! Therefore, I will talk about my favorite MOTHERboard!
Pros: Easy Installation, Soft Menu II, BIOS Cons: ATA/66 IDE Controller caused some problems under Win98/2000
