Abit Fatal1ty F-I90HD

I did not know this existed until it arrived today straight from Taiwan.

Hate to post without images but I will do my best to get all the specifics in as I dont have anything online to copy/paste from.

ATI Radeon Xpress 1250
Intel LGA775 1066Mhz
Intel DDR2
Integrated Radeon X700 Graphics w/ HDMI, D-Sub
4x SATA 3GB/s, IDE, GbE LAN
7.1 HD Audio, S/P DIF out
MicroATX

Once again, this is a Fatal1ty motherboard, complete with red/black color scheme. The box is a finished product, what I have in my hands appears to be a full retail product sample.

It features only one PCIE 16x slot, and two smaller PCIE slots, one PCI slot.

The SATA lacation would be a problem for the larger video cards as well as double width.

Four phase solid japanese caps. Special PWM layout and 100% japanese caps in memory areas. (says on box)

Supports up to 16GB of DDR2

There is no fans on this motherboard.

I will update with pics, just wanted to share with you guys the new arrival as it just arrived.

now I am really excited to see pics :D

Board looks cool, has many futures, supports almost everything i think.
Has some nice features:
-avivo,
-H.264
-VC-1 hardware decoding
-hdcp-connector

I'm looking forward for pictures and OC results :D

looks like a real nice HTPC board. (not that many actually use HTPC)

some info i pulled of of a german forum (hardwareluxx)

hopely it won't be overpriced

Finally a Intel version of the 430/6100 AMD boards. Hopefully the price is right and it is an ok overclocker.

Will you be testing it before Cebit starts, Charles?

Nobody going to mention this thread that has been here for the last 3 weeks?

There are those and a few other places. Would like to see what u do Fugger.

Awaiting ur results.

Thanks for the other link, I should have known sxs112 would have had a thread up early as he is good connections in Taiwan.

None the less, I have the board in hand and about to see how fast it goes.

As far as prices, I think this will be under or very close to $100 US.

WOW cant wait for OC results, I'm expecting one of these from abit soon aswell.

OCZ has provided ATI branded parts to be reviewed on the Xpress 1250 board :woot:

The ram is bright red and compliments the board, awesome looking combo.

I've been reading some of the posts and what not @ hardforum and it seems to cap out around 350-360, hopefully with more mature bios's the board will be able to do 400.

under 100 and Im in for Intel and a 4300 or 4400. Awaiting u Fugger.

Charles you are making me jealous ;)

If OCZ partnered up on the mem side and Abit sent this to FUGGER, I am taking that as a good sign for overclocking... Anxiously looking forward to the results!

If that board does something close to 400Mhz fsb I would be more than happy.
paired with a E4300 and some inexpensive ram and you have a very fast, low power cunsumpting HTPC or surf rig :)

upcoming test with an x6800...

waiting for some results.. :D

:woot: this will be good.. :D

Results from [H]forum .. lots of guys with these boards over there.

Stage 4: vcore@1.4750v & vchipset@1.944 all the rest at default!

10,000mhz? not sure about that
http://www.sudhian.com/index.php?/fo...wthread/96647/

it's easy to do this!
set fsb @500 and you have the estimated cpu frequency ( 20x 500=10000) but not the real one which is 3.2Ghz on the screen(default 2.66) ;)

intel pentium cpu!

360Mhz at +0.1V on CPU and NB so far with an E6600. Have to improve my cooling before i will go further.

With the final bios from abit Windows finally accepts my 4x 1GB DDR2-667 CL5.

under $100 is sweet...

i want to get a nice HTPC board but i wish they made a DDR one so i could some of this old ram i have laying around.
