Looks like a new revision for this cursed mobo won't be coming anytime soon (if ever). From the official Abit Marketing Forum:

@Abit MKT or PR: Can you guys at least acknowledge that a new revision is in the works?

Mine sold, so I dont care. :D
When that $85 comes in the bank, I'll never need to lay eyes on this joke of a motherboard ever again. :toast:
What did you get Hallowed a DFI?
Going to.
LD I completely modded the NF7-S but couldn't get BIOS 10 to work at the time (when ambient was prime).
Chip was doing 11x234 though for most of the day. :cool:
So I have a backup board. The AN7 is funding the DFI and then I'll sell the NF7-S.
Yeah,
I looked at the DFI, but top vcore is only 2v. I heat many people can't even boot with a high FSB and 2v. They have to back it down to 1.85v in some cases so even a vcore mod won't help.
I need 2.1 to run my barton at 2525Mhz. The board does me no good. It has that N2 vcore/high FSB bug bad then.
I'd rather have high FSB. With this new Thermalright with the heatpipe, it can do 2500MHz with 1.93 (used to take 2.06 with an AX7 for 2470 MHz).
This heatsink is the ยงยงยงยง LD. All I did was lap it, Tarn-X dip the base, and then polish it with Mothers Mag Polish. Hell, at 11x200 1.675, it idles at 72 F. :)
*edit*
LD, check this:

What is your room temp?
5c?
That heatsink will do about 15-20c above ambient depending on the thermal compound used.
Test it with a probe if you want the real temperature too.
Wow that's pretty darn good Hallowed.
Sheesh that's incredible really. 20 degrees C??
Ambient was colder than 60... 55 I think. Under load it holds 15C above ambient.
so does the Mach I still not work on this board? am thinking about cancelling my order and going with a DFI Infinity instead.. ty -Matt
my god after about 3 hrs of researching the problems with this board i promptly emailed newegg to tell them to change my order to the infinity board...
this An7 looks like my newest nightmare waiting to happen...
You made the right choice.. :D;)Quote:

Just to let you know I heard back from the Better Business Bureau
about my complaint about Abit and the An7.
Listen to this. They let me know they tried to contact Abit and NEVER got a reply back from them. Would you believe this company?
They think they are above the law and show it. They don't even bother replying to the BBB. They told me this would be noted in their record so anyone that wishes to know their reputation before doing business with them will know their history.
The case is not closed. I'm waiting to rehear from the Florida Attorney general on this. I brought this to his attention that no one is really regulating these products for quality assurance except the company themselves.
Just wanted to let you guys know what Abit's attitude is towards
us and this agency. I urge you all to vote with your wallet and let Abit's bottom line go to hell....
Sold mine and ordered an Infinity :banana:
Sold mine but PAYPAL is foobing around.
But it is sold! :D
I sold both of mine, bloody awful motherboards.
So glad I got this Infinity NFII Ultra. I think even 2v vcore will be enough to get my 1700+ to 2.8GHz, just waiting to get my Prommie fixed.
lol, your posts crack me up, you are one funny cat :DQuote:

Abit has a hard time even acknowledging that major flaws exist. Case in point: the multi prob that affects 95% of the NF7-S mobos (there's a 4 month old, 30+ page sticky thread at the Abit Forum with not a single reply from Abit admin.)
You see. Abit is a company that has NO REGARD or RESPECT for it's customers. Almost every single one of their boards has some sort of bug that doesn't affect the other boards using the same chipset. On top of that they charge you more for a "new board" just because it offers a higher voltages. They truly take advantage of it's users.
A simple reply from Abit on these issues is too much for them.
They are scared of admiting and getting sued.
I'm NOT going to let this issue with the AN7 go away. I'm doing my best to make trouble for Abit like they did for me and the rest of you affected.
Just the fact that they thumb their nose at an American agency
like the BBB and don't even reply to them after numerous attemps shows just what this company's attitude is towards other people and authorities.
They will NEVER make a penny off me again. I don't care if they have the latest greatest board out. I will buy Asus over them anyday. If we band together and NOT PURCHASE their product, then they will react. I say let's hurt them where it counts.
On top of that people themselves are noticing the horrible quality control of their products so I don't really have to rant. I know plenty of people that have written abit off altogether.
I'm talking to a lawyer who does pro bono work about a class action suit against them. I want to hassle them like they hassled me and my friends. The negative PR would be fabulous.
